Testing Subversion for mechanical CAD-files.

Hello,

I have downloaded TortoiseSVN for testing.
We want to use SVN for version control of mechanical CAD-files.

Software used during the test:
Windows 7 Professional SP 1
TortoiseSVN, Version 1.7.1
SolidWorks 2011, SP4

A local repository was created and some initial tests were carried out.
The following was noted:

1. The icon overlay "locked" was not shown (when I tested in Windows XP it worked).

2. SVN information (e. g. SVN-revision) was not available in extra columns in Windows Explorer (according to the user guide it is not possible in Vista and that seems to be the case for Windows 7 as well).

3. A lot of interruptions ("Not Responding") occurred when trying to perform:

* Commit (on modified files)

* Get lock

* Release lock

* Check for modifications

Have you got any comments on the items above?
Grateful for hints on item 3, interruptions.

Best regards
