User should be able to use an external diff tool to view changes to
individual files.
This of course means, that a list of the files has to be built up, instead
of the simple text box which is displayed right now.
This would do wonders to usability.
Thanks.

The external command for using WinMerge with TortoiseSVN is for example:
WinMergeU.exe /e /ub /wl %base %mine

Just in case you haven't noticed: the diff shown is a unified diff, which WinMerge
can do absolutely nothing with.
To get UI diff tools to show a diff, we'd have to fetch the modified files twice
(commited revision and the revision before that). That's something that is not
implemented (and maybe never will).

How about the ability to generate a URL to the ViewVC diff page to see the diff?

I think a link to some ViewVC or other web based diff would be much better.

Does anyOne know some tool to view the Unified Diff using a GUI?
My Beyond Compare doesn't know what to do with it...
After all there is a box for an external util - Does anyone know of one (Freeware
preferably)?

To avoid blowing up the CommitMonitor (it must be kept small with a *very* small
memory footprint since it's running all the time), the easiest way would be to check
for TSVN and use that to show the diff.

Implemented using TSVN for the diffing in [r252].
I know this doesn't really solve this issue for those users who don't have TSVN
installed. But the CommitMonitor must be kept small. You don't want a memory hog
running all the time just to monitor repositories.
