I'm only aware of one Subversion command-line client, and it's the
one provided by the Subversion group, and it's called "svn" and it's
what you get when you download and compile and install the Subversion
source distribution. Subversion, both the client and the server,
require the Apache portable runtime, APR. (This has nothing to do
with the Apache web server; it's just a library which is provided by
the same Apache group which is useful in developing cross-platform
applications.) The Subversion client furthermore requires the Neon
library to communicate over HTTP, a feature you are likely to want in
a Subversion client.

I do not know RapidSVN specifically, but I would expect most
Subversion GUIs to require either the Subversion libraries or the
Subversion command-line client to be installed in order to function.
You'll have to try it out or ask the developers of those GUI tools.
