Subversion on the mac
It’s painful, very painful. I need to get better with the command line client, but I still miss Tortoise. SCplugin simply doesn’t work on Macintel, not even the pre-compiled nightly build. For a while I used svnX but I’m still not that impressed with it, because its a standalone application. A friend recomended smartSVN a standalone java app, I haven’t tried it yet.
For now I am using tortoiseSVN under windows on my shared folder. Yes it is an utterly inellegant solution. Yes I’m paying 256 + megs of ram just for a version control client. But most importantly, YES VERSION CONTROL IS THAT IMPORTANT.
Right now I’m thinking of writing my own tortoiseSVN clone with applescript and shell scripts.
