SVN Tools
What tools can I use to manage my SVN repository?
The Command Line - Using the command line to manage your Acquia Hosting SVN repository is simple and direct. If you need help learning how to use the command line most effectively, Acquia's Hosting documentation is generally oriented towards use of the command line and complete SVN documentation is available at http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/. Feel free to ask Acquia Support is you need more help.
Since Subversion does not come installed on all servers and operating systems, the Subversion website at http://subversion.tigris.org also provides downloads, installation instructions as well as links to GUI tools for those not comfortable using the command line.
SVN GUI Tools - There are many tools available to help you manage your SVN activities, from IDE plugins to GUI clients both open source and commercial. You are free to manage your SVN repository using any tools you are comfortable with, not just the command line. Acquia does not provide support for any of the software listed below.
- Windows - Tortoise SVN - available at http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/ - Tortoise SVN is a free and open source software package that integrates SVN repository management functionality into the Windows Explorer.
- Mac OS X - Versions - availalable at http://versionsapp.com/ - is an excellent commercial SVN management package.
