Have you ever had that impulse on jumping to that new trend that everyone’s talking about, but you get yourself lost when you try to approach it? It’s happened to me a few times since I began getting interested in technology and software applications in general. Sometimes that new tool or device seems to be a great idea, and you think that you or your business could really benefit from it but, when you try to put your hands on it, it just becomes impossible for you to go from the idea to the fact. Subversion is, in my opinion, one of the typical cases of this statement.

In a previous post, I wrote a little bit about the activities involved in the management of collaborative work using Subversion. That post was completely server-side oriented.

Now, I’d like to address the other side of the coin, the client side of Subversion. I’ll be describing the most common activities related to SVN Clients for the Mac and the best way to use them, and will provide a few more useful tips from the perspective of, let’s say, a programmer.

Read on for info and tips.
