Seems that some of my attempts to post here aren't working. Maybe I
posted to author, so Andy, you may be seeing this for the second time.
Yes, I was just looking for the functionality of TSVN on Mac. I used
it a fair amount on Windows, but have been using a Mac most of the
time for the last couple of years. My dev work partly occurs on a
Windows VM on the Mac, though. My working files are on the Mac, not
the VM. I was using the command line for SVN until recently. Then, I
switched to the beta version of a SVN client called Versions. And now,
I'm doing a trial of a similar app called Cornerstone. Both are pretty
nice, though maybe not as full featured as TSVN. Not bargains,
either.
Still, I may end up buying one of them.
I may try using TSVN on the VM, but I'm a bit worried about possible
cross platform problems. The VM sees the files on the Mac as being on
a network drive. I don't know if TSVN or SVN in general are intended
to manage WCs on network drives.
