RE: Subversion GUI client?

We looked at that Tortoise, but it seems to require something more than FTP,
since it plugs into Windows Explorer. (I guess you could run SAMBA or
something like that to get the Apache server to appear as a local drive on
the Windows box, but I was really hoping to avoid that-teaching the
developers the CLI is less odious.)

Subversion needs a good cross-platform GUI which doesn't force the user to
put the checked-out files locally, but allows them to put them anywhere,
including the same box where the repository is.

Am I the only one looking for this?

Hi. We are interested in Subversion, but have a particular client need and
so far I haven't been able to find a client that does what I am looking for.
Specifically:

We are an ASP and therefore developers are constantly testing on an Apache
web server. I need a windows client that will allow the developer to check
out a module to another (private) folder on the remote web server. So far,
all I have been able to determine for sure is that windows clients check
files out to the local hard drive (not what I am looking for).

Does anyone know of a client that does what I am looking for?

Thanks,

Very well implemented and further improvements in the pipeline judging by
the list activities.
