Using Subversion with Visual Studio .NET

Hello,

I wanted to ask anyone out there using Subversion with Visual Studio 
.NET projects what your experiences were. Would you recommend using 
Subversion with VS.NET? Was it cumbersome? Could you integrate with 
Subversion from directly within VS? Do you think that the integration 
merits sticking with Visual Source Safe instead?

Your thoughts are appreciated!

Brad

My team uses command line tools (native Windows or via Cygwin) and/or  
TortoiseSVN [http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/]. They work very well for  
us. They don't integrate with VS.NET, so we have to switch to them  
when we need them. I don't have any experience with tools that do  
integrate with VS.NET, such as AnkhSVN [http://ankhsvn.tigris.org/].  
So far as I know, no team member feels that using them outside of  
VS.NET is very cumbersome. Finally, not one of us would recommend  
using Visual Source "Unsafe." ;-) There are so many tools that are so  
much better; pick any one of them and know that your source code  
other other project artifacts are infinitely better cared for than if  
you trust them to Visual Source "Unsafe." Search the net for "visual  
source unsafe" and find out why.

Regards,
Craig
