svn diff should be enough for the diff.

You can read the commit messages by looking at any of the commits
online (http://svn.php.net/viewvc?view=revision&revision=295501 for
example).

If you are fixing a bug, then using fix# or bug# followed by the
actual number will allow the the svn hooks update the bug for you.
