No, there is no way in FileMerge to produce an overview list. Subversion invokes the diff command once for each file.

What you could do is to make svn wait for FileMerge to close instead of just opening so many windows.

Put this shell script at ~/libexec/opendiff-wait and change the diff-filemerge line in your .bashrc accordingly:
#!/bin/bash opendiff "$@" | cat

Now only a single window will pop up and when FileMerge is closed completely (⌘+Q) svn continues with the next file.

Hi – I really enjoyed this script – simplifies things quite nicely. I am new to FileMerge and was wondering if there was a way to have the output of diff-filemerge open some sort of initial screen with just a list of the files that have differences. Currently if you execute as is, you get millions of windows popping up if there are a number of files that need to be reviewed. Any help greatly appreciated as I did through FileMerge more.
