What version are you running? RBTools 0.3.4 What's the URL of the page containing the problem? It's rbtools related stuff What steps will reproduce the problem? 1.Install RBtools with python 27 on windows 7 2.Install latest diff (2.8.7) 3.run post-review -d in subverion repository c:\repo\trunk>post-review -d >>> RBTools 0.3.4 >>> Home = C:\Users\aderevyankin\AppData\Roaming >>> svn info >>> diff --version GNU diff is required for Subversion repositories. Make sure it is installed and in the path. On Windows, you can install this from: http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/diffutils.htm _____________________________ c:\repo\trunk>diff --version diff (GNU diffutils) 2.8.7 Written by Paul Eggert, Mike Haertel, David Hayes, Richard Stallman, and Len Tower.

I mean diff is installed and in the path, probably some regexp what analyses diff --verion output is not matching new version.
Well, I found a root cause of the problem - it's my way to setup a PATH. if you will enter something like "C:\Program Files\GnuWin32\bin" instead of C:\Program Files\GnuWin32\bin (without quotes) it cause the problem. So I think bug is not real, but it would be nice to have this finding somewhere in wiki. Thanks

I'm getting the same problem, and I didn't use quotes in my PATH. I am trying to execute the following command: post-review --revision-range=4:33 I can run diff, sdiff, cmp, and diff3 just fine from the command prompt but post-review doesn't seem to recognize that those programs exist.
i fixed the issue in this way : copy all the exe files from GNU's bin fold to svn's bin fold.
