SVN 1.5.x experiences?

[D. Burger]

I'd like to upgrade to SVN 1.5.1 Anyone have experiences with the
current BBEdit 8.7.2 release? Like SVN commands that aren't working
anymore ... I really need BBEdit to work properly with my SVN repos.

Depending on how (or more specifically WHERE) you're installing the
new version, you might need to set:

defaults write com.barebones.bbedit
Subversion:SubversionToolPathOverride /path/to/svn/binary

The only other challenges with 1.5 are gui tool compatibility (svnX is
the only one I've gotten to work). The svnCM works, too.

WOW!! Absolutely fantastic! Works like a charm!

Thank you very much for this suggestion, I didn't know about this.

On another Mac I installed Martin Ott's (very simple) SVN 1.5.1
(http://homepage.mac.com/martinott/) binary installer. I've installed
his previous version of SVN 1.4.4 a couple of months ago and works
great. On that Mac a tested out BBEdit and all 'seem' to work fine.

But when I updated my repo's to SVN 1.5.1. schema (svnadmin upgrade /
path/to/repo) BBEdit (SVN actually) started to complain: "svn client
to old". As it turns out: Martin Ott's SVN 1.5.1 binary installs in a
different dir.namely: /usr/local/bin (before it was /usr/bin, where
BBEdit expects it to be)

I was kinda wondering how BBEdit actually uses SVN and already had an
idea it uses the command-line client in the background, so indeed:
just tell BBEdit where to find the new command-line client tools:

defaults write com.barebones.bbedit
Subversion:SubversionToolPathOverride /usr/local/bin/svn

------------------------------------------------------------

As for Mac SVN GUI tools: I would suggest an excellent and very
promising new (as of this writing still beta) app named
"Versions" (http://versionsapp.com/). About 2 or 3 days ago they
updated there beta which now uses it's own SVN 1.5 binary / client.
This app workes great with my current SVN 1.5.1 repo's. It does basic
SVN day to day work.

Another Mac SVN GUI might be "Cornerstone" (http://www.zennaware.com/
cornerstone/), but it uses SVN 1.4.6 internal binary / client.
