SVN tools on VirtualRDC nodes

May 27th, 2009

Apart from the standard subversion command line clients (installed on all VirtualRDC nodes), the main login node VRDC6402 also sports two graphical interfaces:

  • KDESVN – this is integrated into the native Konqueror browser. You can view any versioned folder in a SVN-view, and perform SVN operations using Konqueror menus (top and right-click).
  • SmartSVN – this is a free (but not open-source) Java-based SVN client that also runs on Windows and Mac OS X. You can call it from the start menu.

Let us know if you find this useful, or if you run into any problems.
