I tried
lyx -x "command-sequence vc-compare 1 2;" main.lyx
Then I extended this to
lyx -x "command-sequence vc-compare 1 2; buffer-write-as exported.lyx" main.lyx
How can I store the new 'diff' file in exported.lyx?

Automate Diff Creation
I want to automate the creation of a 'diff' document. Version control system is Subversion.
I tried

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

I don't use Subversion with LyX. Maybe you could give steps to reproduce a similar issue? Maybe using the compare tool to compare an old.lyx file and a new.lyx file? If I could solve that problem, then it might lead you to a solution to yours.
