If Windows had a decent command line / shell (has
its suckyness improved
for
Win7?), I bet that TortoiseSVN had far less
downloads... it simply is the
only way to make SVN usable on Windows.
That or Cygwin. (git works well in Cygwin too. At my last workplace we
made damn sure to put Cygwin on our few Windows servers with sshd
running.) Cygwin made even command-line CVS usable.
Yup, cygwin is really cool... but you still need a proper GUI frontend.
Windows's cmd simply sucks compared to e.g. xterm or konsole, which, of
course, both can be run in cygwin. But getting X output via cygwin is a damn
nightmare of a task.
