Thank you for the quick reply. I now understand the reason for not supporting changed lines. 

I need to be able to differentiate between adding/removing code from changing code. This can help find code that is constantly being refactored and therefore might prove helpful to have the code reviewed. 

In the added/removed lines I see that the svn side of things is recognizing changed lines, but adding one to each of added and removed lines. 

Can you keep things compatible by having a nullable column that is used for version control systems that can differentiate between added, removed and modified lines?
