Is there a simple log/diff frontend (like gitk)?

Hello everyone,

One thing that I took for granted when doing all of my development in
Git was the always-reliable gitk which provides cross-platform log and
diff browsing. I'm sure it does more, but those were the main things I
used it for.

I am now working with a Subversion repository. Maybe I have not yet
mastered the "log" command, but I find the output of the following
two commands to be confusing:

$ svn log -r HEAD
------------------------------------------------------------------------
r3617 | tallen | 2010-04-12 15:57:35 -0400 (Mon, 12 Apr 2010) | 1 line

full comments + jslint fixes
------------------------------------------------------------------------
$ svn log | grep tallen # outputs nothing

In general it would be very nice to have a tool to facilitate browsing
recent revisions and their diffs; I do not need it to help with
committing my changes or anything along those lines.

So, does anybody know of a simple, cross-platform, open-source
Subversion browser? I am on a Mac, and it seems that the only options
are proprietary and heavy, such as Versions and CornerStone...
