You can turn off Load/Save -> General -> "Size optimization forXML format"
for better readable format. Anyway, a line-based diff doesn't really make
sense for XML.
SVN integration could/should also happen on a different level, like this:
a virtual disk that looks like any other storage media but which
internally stored things in SVN. Not sure if such a thing already exists.
Thank you for that. It is much more suited for line based diff with that
optimization turned off.
The reason I would like open office to integrate better with svn is
because then open office would be able to handle svn commit conflicts
better, and also be able to use redlining to highlight changes between
different versions of the document in the svn repository.
If SVN was just a file system, open office would not be able to support
the above features.
But, at least with the "Size optimization forXML format" disabled, only
the real changes are placed in the svn repository, which is a start.
