What I do is checkout the svn version from networked PC and do the
diffs on non-networked home PC. The tracker-website.4998 is the the
directory name for the svn I didn't touch. I didn't know there were
problems with this since my changes were committed before.
But thanks for the new instruction, I'll do the modifications at home
and do the diff (here) at work, IIUC.
