I work at a small Russian software development company, we have about
two dozen programmers and a few non-programmers (managers, marketing
etc.) all using TSVN quite successfully. Our repository predominantly
contains code, but have some binary files like Word documents,
graphics etc. The policy is to discourage such files.

> - how big is your project (number of files)
Our projects are of moderate size, usually 500 to 2000 files, 10 to
100 Mb total size per project. All projects are located in a common
repository, with many files svn-copied between projects. Whole setup
works very well in both performance and reliability.

All of the above depending on circumstances. We badly miss
protocol-independent externals in Subversion... but that is for
another maillist.

We were using ClearCase before... need I say more? TortoiseSVN is far
better in every aspect.

Almost everything which I do not like is not TSVN's, but Subversion's fault.
I think SVN+TSVN is the ultimate in evolution of centralized version
control systems, and the only reason to abandon them is moving to a
distributed development.

My company is Insight Experts Ltd., and the site is
http://www.iexperts.ru, but it is in Russian only, sorry.
