I'm using Subversion svn under windows in cmd. How can I check which files have been changed from the revision before? I tried

 svn.exe info --changelist xx   # xx is a revision number

But there is no output. I guess I need to add the url to the trunk + I need to tell svn.exe that I want the changelist from the current revision I have on my computer (e.g. 74) to the newest (e.g. 75). How can I do that? Thanks!

You want the svn status command. 

svn status  # By itself, it'll show you local changes in your working copy
svn status --show-updates  # This will show what's out of date

Also, if you're using Windows I heartily recommend TortoiseSVN.
