Answer 1

You might need to ask user to upload both versions of file.

In the server you need to compare line by line, and store the line numbers of the file differences in another file or location

Then, while displaying, get the line numbers and give them proper decoration (i.e bold etc.).

Answer 2

JTextArea might make a suitable view, but you still need to model the differences. I'd look at the Eclipse or NetBeans platforms, or perhaps svnview.
