decent suite of svn support tools for a mixed environment?
as frightening as it sounds, i have the opportunity to advise a
group just starting out with putting their code into subversion, and
i'm wondering what support tools others have used to complete the
subversion "experience". that is, graphical repo browsers and so on.
since it's a mixed environment, being platform-independent is a
plus, but i have to admit that rapidsvn still has a few shortcomings
compared to tortoise in some areas. in any event, i'm open to
suggestions as to extra goodies folks use to complete their svn
working environment. thanks.

Are you talking about Subversion tools or other tools they might want?
We use ViewVC which comes with Subversion. It allows you to browse the
repository including commit messages, and do graphical diffs.
I also recommend they use Hudson as a continuous build tool. You can
configure it to do a build every time someone makes a new commit in
the repository. Hudson can run JUnit tests and publish the results. It
can then add comments to a Bugzilla or Jira defect tracking system.
Eclipse is the standard IDE for Java applications, and has a
Subversion client. It runs on almost any platform. Actually, your best
bet is to download the CollabNet Eclipse Desktop which has a much
better Subversion merge tool than what comes in the standard Eclipse
client.
The biggest issue are line endings. I am not thrilled with the way
Subversion handles them. Subversion doesn't differentiate between
binary and text files, so it doesn't munge line endings unless asked.
We get mixed line endings in almost any text file we don't add the
svn:eol-style property to.
