Instead, and what has been done so far to solve it.' – John Dvorak, hichris123, Bart, Community, rene If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the, please. I was also after a free SVN app, I tried a few different solutions, but none of them quite hit the mark. To start with I was excited by svnX, but then it's really confusing how it treats 'working copies' and 'repositories' differently - I still am not quite sure exactly when/why to use which of the multiple windows.
It seems to cover everything, but just not fluently. You know what I've ended up using?
Best Svn Client Mac Os
Netbeans I've been using it as my IDE for a while now, and have always liked it, but I didn't use it for SVN while on my PC (I preferred the Tortoise SVN interface). But now on OSX I've been after something that has similar functionality and I was very surprised to find that Netbeans seems to be perfect! All I was after was a single browsable file tree that you can right click and apply all the familiar commands (update, commit, revert, search history, diff against other versions) etc, and netbeans has it all. It's actually really thorough, logical, familiar and complete. It's surprisingly similar to Tortoise in the general navigation & interface (minus the pretty icons of course) - but I'm impressed. Give it a shot!
Starting a new business venture. I have always used VisualSVN as my SVN server and Tortoise SVN as my SVN client on Windows systems. This has always worked perfectly for me and my teams.
My new project is a two person team with a friend, who is a die hard Mac user and is my web designer for the project (I am backend, and they are front end). At the end of the day, if I use VisualSVN as my server. Can I (as long as i use the same versions of svn) use tortoise for all my windows work, and have my friend use a different client on their Mac and both work on the same repositories on the same Visual SVN server? If so does anyone have a SVN that they recommend out there for Mac? My friend has never used SVN before, but i made a pretty clear point for how it is useful and have them very interested in the version control concept.
The downloads page of tortoise SVN recommends Smart SVN for mac clients. Can anyone confirm this is a good choice, or any other clients that may be a recommended. Some forums recommend 'Versions SVN' for Mac, but I have no idea of its compatibility.
Thanks for the help in advance.
