If you didn't make any other changes to your local copy, "svn diff > patch.diff" (without any file parameter) from the root directory of your copy should work just fine, as it scans all controlled files recursively. Small hint: if you omit the "> pathc.diff" part, you see the differences in the terminal. A bit faster to see if it's working without needing to create a file and opening it.
