Linux GUIs
Hi,
I'm looking for experiences with GUIs for Subversion (Ubuntu linux).
Any comparisons or preferences for Subcommander, rapidSVN, eSvn.
I use (and am very happy with) TortoiseSVN on Windows.
Thanks,
j

We're in agreement then :)

Ooops, only now noticed that I did not mean esvn, but kdesvn instead.

Just wanted to say that I do like esvn very much. It has an easy to use
and quite powerful interface. Nice revision graphs. A quite good differ. I
did not see the bug you're reporting here, but I'll try to reproduce it on
my system (SuSE 10.2). Though, I admit that I had some crashes, but never
lost any file.
In sum I think that this is a promising tool, worth trying. [ Subclipse
might be also great, but it requires the whole eclipse environment and
therefore that java monster is just an overkill for my 7years old PIII,
which is why I stick to emacs, bash and esvn. :( ]
TortoiseSVN is my favourite under Windows, but it is also not 100%
perfect. The caching of overlay icons seems to be a big problem and drives
me nuts quite often, since it does not work reliably. (TortoiseCVS is much
better in that respect.)
Apart from that I think a standalone solution is always better (like
WinCVS under Windows)! This is especially valid for Linux, where you have
so many different file browsers. One can not expect that the community
implements the full functionality of TortoisSVN for all these tools at
the same quality level...
Given that, esvn is not a bad choice after all!
Regards,
Marko
P.S.: I also tested kdesvn a couple of months ago, but for some reason
(don't remember what it was what bugged me at the time) I decided that
esvn is much better and sticked to that.

I may have been mistaken about this one. It may have had the
single entry ".", which would have been correct (I didn't actually
try the import). But, I'd expect a GUI to show me the files too.

I had initially skipped kdesvn because it is advertised as "quite
tightly integrated with KDE" and I'm using Gnome. I gave it a try
and was quite impressed. Intuitive interface, and quick.

kdesvn is quite nice, but in my opinion, tortoise (for windows only) is
nicer (or at least, i enjoyed it more). in linux i have ended up using
command line with some wrapper scripts for kdiff3.

Hi,
I ended up using Subclipse under Ubuntu.

Not used it, but there is an integration in kde (if that is your
environment):

Thanks for the suggestions. For what it's worth, here's what I
found. All were tested from Ubuntu Gutsy packages, not from the
latest version source.
RapidSVN: it's okay. I found a bug in the import procedure. I don't
really like the interface (bookmarks).
TkCVS: I didn't like this one, it's overkill (I only need SVN, not
CVS). Starting the repo browser crashed because CVS wasn't installed
(and I couldn't easily figure out how to browse an SVN repository).
esvn: bug in the repo browser: garbage data on the righthand side
when you are browsing a folder that only contains other folders.
subcommander: bug in the repo browser: I clicked on a folder, tried
to Import, and the commit window that came up didn't contain my
file selections.
I'd really like something like TortoiseSVN, something that integrated
with the ubuntu file browser. But for now, because of the presence
of bugs, I'll stick with the command line. Sigh...

TkCVS (works for SVN too) works well. http://www.twobarleycorns.net/tkcvs.html

Not completely GUI, but I changed the default diff command of the command line svn to kdiff3, so diff's and merges are done GUI, all other operations are done command line. In this way I have control, but still a good grasp on diffs and merges.
Take a look at [1] and search for svndiffwrapper.
