in beta til 1st July, don't know what they'll charge for it after that but it's badass so it'll probably be worth the cash.

A decent svn client is lonnnnnnnng overdue. The file comparison bit could use a little polishing and is not very intuitive but it works well enough once you've figured it out. Enjoy.
 
Wish I had to do some work now JUST to use it! :D

aha! I emailed it to my boss as he's looking to implement version controlling - he said I can become the svn guy so I've got perfect reason to use it and get myself a licence when it's released! :D

I also spent last night putting all my existing code on my machine into subversion repositories. What I really want is one of those big 16GB USB drives to do it all on there :D

haha, you kiss ass!!
 
Don't waste time with subversion, use 'git'. I'm a professional software developer, and I used pretty much every major SCS to date (some, like cvs and svn, for years); now I use git exclusively (including the subversion<->git bridge).
It is /so/ much better than subversion it's not even funny. True it doesn't have funky front end, but the speed and the functionality is so enormously superior that you won't mind the command line after all.

I'm a professional web developer. Can't say I've ever had a problem with svn, used git and it seemed the same for what I use it for so I can't see myself changing. There does seem to be a tonne of hype over git at the moment. Why is that?

Also, with the OSX version of git, there's a nice little gui anyway
