I've tried various SVN IDE plugins over the years and, in general,
found them to be buggy and cause all kinds of weird SVN problems, so I
always go back to using TSVN from Windows Explorer. Also, I work on
some projects that don't use an IDE. I use TSVN's "Repair Move"
feature to change unrelated add/delete operations into renames. It
works great most of the time, except when I change the case of a file
name only - then TSVN silently wipes out my change, which I find a bit
disconcerting and inconvenient.
