This is what I gathered from a Windows web developer who has just switched to Linux. --- Anyone know why there is nothing close to tortoiseSVN for Linux? Sure IDEs have plugins; eSVN, RapidSVN, KDEsvn, etc exist, but none come close to the feature set of tortoise. --- This is his words - what do you think?

KDEsvn has all the features of tortoisesvn I ever used. You say it doesn't come close to the feature set, perhaps it would be more useful if you stated which features are required that the alternatives listed here do not provide. -- Benjamin Weber -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Oeps, sorry, as I said Im just relaying what a buddy said to me (moving his web dev stuff to Linux) - I will discuss it first with him and come back to you.

IIRC, there was an SVN Nautilus plugin... http://www.lynchconsulting.com.au/blog/index.cfm/2006/12/30/Subversion-plugi... It didn't work very well when I last tried it in 2004 or 5, but I daresay it's improved. Hans van der Merwe wrote:

Eclipse has a useable SVN plugin for windows and linux is about all I have experience of use for a graphical frontend... Do not know tortoiseSVN as something to use but looking at the spec all it supplies is an IDE independent component for explorer, which I do not really think of as a feature (more an accident waiting to happen :-) ) which on its own would put me off. It is backing on to the standard subversion server, so functionality should not be much different and IDE integration is probably more effective for the developer. Depends what features he is looking for really... If you are managing a number of svn repositries one would require tools administer who has access to what, but I would not think these changes would happen often enough to warrant investment in specific toolset. The basic command line client is usually good enough for me.... and if I want to something clever I would just bash something together :-) - -- ============================================================================== I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone.
