Hmm... Ok, so, in summary, I should try kdesvn. Any other thoughts? The
client doesn't really have to be built into a file exploer (konqueror,
nautilius, etc.). Just fairly clear and functional.
For example, rapid's lack of a simple 'svn:ignore' property add. I've also
had some trouble with the menus, which I assume is due to a version issue
with wxWindows. Also, I built from source and bungled the ssl support, so I
can only use it local anyway.
I really like the way tortoise pops up the list of files changed, not under
source control, etc. when you go to check in. Simple stuff like that.
