Subversion Recommendation

[Bassam Abdul Baki]

Any suggestions? I need it for a Win7 64-bit machine. I've narrowed it down to Slik and VisualSVN. No Visual Studio integration. I Just need a stand-alone version control system.

Subversion bites. I hate it more than SourceSafe.

What about TortoiseSVN?

VisualSVN depends on Tortoise anyway, not sure about Slik

[Bassam Abdul Baki]

Doesn't Tortoise require SVN or is this stand-alone?

Any other recommendations then? It has to be open-source (i.e., free). :)

Don't agree there. If Ray Ozzie had designed a source control system, it would be SourceSafe.

There's always Mercurial. [Update] Almost forgot - Mercurial also has TortoiseHg. [/Update]

I have tortoise and svn as two different packages. one is the subversion server... the other one is the client. It seems that the subversion server has been changed and now it can have different flavours: http://subversion.apache.org/packages.html[^] Before you could download it from http://subversion.tigris.org/[^] but it seems that now it it part of apache and therefore the change... I'm interested on following this post... let's see what others say... (I had in mind asking something similar soon). :thumbsup:

I second Hans' proposition about SVN+Tortoise. Easy and reliable.

[Mike Hankey]

I also agree with Hans on the Tortoise+SVN and I would add either AnkhSVN or RocketSVN for VS.

Joan probably has more recent info, but you could look at: Version Control for the Standalone Programmer - Part 1[^]

The SVN website had 4 or 5 different Windows' versions for SVN. I needed a recommendation on which one to use. No Visual Studio integration needed.

No VS integration.

It's not for programming. Mostly Word documents. No Visual Studio or any other programming IDE.

I'm using VisualSVN and Ankh.

[Amit Sk Sharma]

visual SVN is good option but as you need stand alone one, Tortoise SVN works fine.

With Thanks & Regards Amit Sk Sharma

Sorry, I meant VisualSVN+Tortoise.

[Dave Calkins]

I'd say definitely go with TortoiseSVN. Single download and install and you have everything you need to connect to your SVN server. Works really well.
