[Subclipse-users] Could SVNKit be the default SVN implementation instead of JavaHL?

From: Nick Boldt <nboldt_at_redhat.com>

JBoss Tools and JBoss Developer Studio provide an Eclipse
Marketplace-like way of installing Subclipse and SVNKit via a single
step into an existing Eclipse install.

However, the out-of-box experience that follows installation involves an
error message telling them how to get JavaHL which fails to mention that
they could simply use SVNKit.

So I have two suggestions which could improve the user experience:

a) default to SVNKit when JavaHL is unavailable, or

b) at least tell users about Help > Preferences > Team > SVN > SVN
Interface so they know how to select an alternative SVN interface to
JavaHL, should they want a platform-agnostic implementation.
