The problem is that the URL you are using is the HTML rendering of the rosinstall file. You have to use the raw file (there is a "view raw file" link on that page). Using the following line, it works:

rosinstall /srv/ros http://win-ros-pkg.googlecode.com/svn/stacks/win_ros/trunk/winmaster_diamondback.rosinstall
