A comparison of Subversion clients includes various aspects of computer software implementations of the client role using the client–server model of the Subversionrevision control system.
The popular Subversion client for macOS, Windows and Linux. Available as free Foundation edition and as full-featured Professional edition. SvnX allows you to browse your working copies, spot changes and operate on them but also to browse logs and revisions of your repositories. It is written using Panther's new bindings mechanism for.
Descriptions[edit]

TortoiseSVN, a Windows shell extension, gives feedback on the state of versioned items by adding overlays to the icons in the Windows Explorer. Repository commands can be executed from the enhanced context menu provided by Tortoise.
Cornerstone is a GUI for Subversion written with Xcode for MacOS X.
SmartSVN provides a similar Explorer integration, but also can be used as a standalone SVN client for different platforms. SmartSVN is available in three different editions: A free Foundation edition with fewer features and two commercial editions called Professional and Enterprise with the full feature set.
Some programmers prefer to have a client integrated within their development environment. Such environments may provide visual feedback of the state of versioned items and add repository commands to the menus of the development environment. Examples of this approach include AnkhSVN, and VisualSVN for use with Microsoft Visual Studio, and Subversive[1][2]for use with Eclipse. Delphi XE Subversion integration is built into the Delphi IDE.
It is common to expose Subversion via Webdav using the Apache web server. In this case, any Webdav client can be used, but the functionality provided this way may be limited. Alternative ways to serve Subversion include uberSVN and VisualSVN Server.

'Enterprise-class centralized version control for the masses'
Welcome to subversion.apache.org, the online home of the Apache® Subversion® software project. Subversion is an open source version control system. Founded in 2000 by CollabNet, Inc., the Subversion project and software have seen incredible success over the past decade. Subversion has enjoyed and continues to enjoy widespread adoption in both the open source arena and the corporate world.
Subversion is developed as a project of the Apache Software Foundation, and as such is part of a rich community of developers and users. We're always in need of individuals with a wide range of skills, and we invite you to participate in the development of Apache Subversion. Here's how to get started.
For helpful hints about how to get the most out of your visit to this site, see the About This Site section below.
Our Vision ¶
Subversion exists to be universally recognized and adopted as an open-source, centralized version control system characterized by its reliability as a safe haven for valuable data; the simplicity of its model and usage; and its ability to support the needs of a wide variety of users and projects, from individuals to large-scale enterprise operations.

About This Site ¶
This website is the central source of information about Subversion and the community which gives it life. Here, you'll find resources that are useful to existing and potential Subversion users and developers alike. Want to read about Subversion's features? Need to download the latest Subversion release? Perhaps you've thought of a great enhancement and you're wondering how to share the idea with the developers? This site will help you do all that.
Who is this site not aimed at? Well, there are many third-party tools which exist as part of the greater Subversion ecosystem, but aren't part of the core project itself. Subversion clients such as TortoiseSVN, or Subversion's integrations into various IDE's such as Eclipse and NetBeans, or the pure Java implementation of Subversion called SVNKit — these are all valuable pieces of the Subversion story, but each is managed as its own project outside of the core Subversion offering. This site really isn't so much about those projects.
The sections below provide a high-level overview of how this website is organized, making reference to the navigation menu you should find on the left-hand side of each page of the website.
The 'About Subversion' Section ¶
The 'About Subversion' section of the website is Information Central. You can read the latest Subversion News, learn about Subversion's rich set of Features, and consult various sources of Documentation about Subversion and the processes that govern that interactions of the Subversion community. There's a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page, as well as some forward-looking material in the form of a feature Roadmap.
The 'Getting Subversion' Section ¶
Learning about Subversion is great, but the real fun is in applying that knowledge. The 'Getting Subversion' section of the website is all about making sure Subversion finds it way into your hands. This community releases source code archives of the various Subversion versions, which you can get via the Source Code menu. (That's also a good place to look for instructions on checking out Subversion's source code from the repository in which it lives.) But if you'd rather not deal with building Subversion yourself, there are a number of places where you can get precompiled Binary Packages of Subversion, built for various platforms.

The 'Community' Section ¶
Svn For Macos
The other sections of the website are primarily about getting — the 'Community' section is where you interact and give. Here, you'll learn about the Mailing Lists where Subversion-related discussions occur and about the Issue Tracker where bugs and enhancement requests are reported. We'll tell you about the various ways you can be Getting Involved with the project.
The 'About the ASF' Section ¶
The rest of this site is about Subversion — but Subversion doesn't operate in a vacuum. It is part of the Apache Software Foundation (ASF), which — in addition to the servers that run this site and our mailing lists — provides financial, technical, and legal backing. The 'About the ASF' section contains links that relate to the the Foundation as a whole. It lists our sponsors and allows you to donate if you wish.
