DESCRIPTION
SmartSVN is graphical client for the Open Source version control system Subversion (SVN). It targets professionals who demand a reliable, efficient and well-supported SVN client for their daily business.

SmartSVN Professional has powerful features like Change Set handling (group your changes before finally committing them), Revision Graph (shows the branch structure and copy history graphically), built-in File Compare/Merge, Change Report or Tag and Branch handling, which make your daily work with Subversion as easy as possible.

SmartSVN is the consequent successor of SmartCVS, and works together with your Subversion server out of the box.

SmartSVN is available in two versions, a free Foundation version and the powerful Professional version.

WHAT'S NEW
Version 6.5.5: Improvements:
  • Commit: for built-in compare, Alt-Up/Down work if file list or commit message is focused
  • JIRA plugin: System property "smartsvn.plugin.jira.resolved-constant" to reconfigure 'resolved'-constant for custom workflows
  • Tree: scrolling nodes to visible area takes the expand/collapse icon into account
Bug fixes:
  • Apply Patch: revision information could not be parse for patches created with non-English SVN
  • Apply Patch: queried repository for wrong paths when applying path to non-root directory
  • Built-in File compare/Conflict solver: changing the same line after a save which was changed immediately before the save did not mark the document as changes
  • Change Report: internal error when invoking Log or Revision Graph on unversioned file
  • Compare URLs window: Show Changes action did not show text
  • Conflict Solver: possible internal error when undoing changes
  • Copy/Move: two-files copy/move did not work for unversioned/copied files (regression since 6.5.3)
  • Create Patch: paths should be relative to selected directory
  • External editor: parser was accepting bad URLs like 'http://///////////////foo/bar'
  • Externals: '../' should be disallowed in local path part
  • Import: possible "Working copy '... locked" error on final commit
  • Merge: Preview should not be cancelled in case of conflicts when merging multiple revision ranges
  • Move: working copy root (external) should not be allowed to be moved
  • Move: failed if target is located in external (even of the same repository)
  • Multi-root-project: the first root was always expanded
  • Refresh: possible internal error
  • Revision Graph: internal error for Show Merge Arrows
  • Revision Graph: merge arrows left to left-most branch were not displayed properly
  • Revision Graph: tags were not displayed properly if files themselves were replaced with copy-from properly set
  • Status Cache: clearing cache could fail with timeout error (caused by internal cache error)
  • Subframes: closing frame did not cancel currently running operation
  • Switch: internal error when using "Other URL" without entering path
  • Tag Browser: did not recognize certain branches as removed
  • Transactions: possible internal error when adding second working copy root
  • Windows: if a directory contains spaces in the path, it couldn't be opened in the explorer
  • smartsvn.properties: trailing spaces should be trimmed from propery values
REQUIREMENTS
Mac OS X 10.4 or later.

MRGANDO  I really like smartSVN for big project managing, I tried svnX but it failed to connect to my svn server ( that has some tweaked settings for extra security ). So since then using smartSVN, I just use the "free" non pro version, but it does everything I really need.

It's also quite intuitive to use, the only cons is that is written in java, but it's a multi-platform app so I can see that happening.

NORTHERNGIT  While this does have a rich feature set, I opted to purchase Versions. A much cleaner interface with the same features.

CAPTSALTYJACK  Not quite, pal. Versions doesn't have any support for branching and merging, something which is very basic, and very necessary.

JELVEH  I've been using it for a long time now, it's the best and most reliable svn client on the mac IMO, I bought the professional license and it is definitly worth it if you're working all day long on repository code :).

I'd love to see the Interface becoming more responsive (I'm using a Powerbook G4 1,67Ghz) also would like to see it become more like a real mac app - though I'd rather have a stable and powerful client than have it just look good.

M!K3  After testing quite all other available Subversion clients out there (free and commercial), I need to say: smartSVN Pro by far is the best one. Very good overview over the project's changes, intuitive usage, powerful features and rock solid.

Don't search any longer, use smartSVN! The 46EUR for the Pro version are worth each cent!

VVARP  You might like it's interface or not - but for us, developers, decent svn client is a critical tool. So, in this case it's better to forgot about look'n'feel (c'mon, it isn't soooo bad!) and focus on functionality, which is really impressive compared to competitors.

Most of other OSX Subversion clients are simple frontends to command line svn and in most cases doesn't give you even half of functionality you can get through shell...

SmartSVN is single-contained, Java based solution, have great feature set (even without pro licence) and does it's job really well.

If you are on hunt for perfect OSX Subversion client - doesn't look further, you've just found it!

KIDDAILEY  This is a really nice, full-featured SVN client. One of my favorite things is that it's completely cross-platform and I can use an identical interface whether I'm working on a Windows or Mac machine.

Unfortunately, that's also its biggest downfall. The integration into OS X is limited. Drag and drop support is lacking and the UI is very un-Mac-like. There's also no "Reveal in Finder" functionality either, which forces you to have the project directory open along side the client.

If you're looking for a robust, stable, cross-platform client, this is an awesome choice. If you're looking for something that integrates seamlessly into OS X and the Mac OS workflow, you may want to keep looking.

MRONSETH  Looks very promising!

The GUI (especially the settings dialogues and the file system browser) could be more intuitive and OSX like, but it certainly does handle SVN very well.

Now, if only I could figure out how to make it open documents in BBEdit when doubleclicked... I only get a text window with no document inside :-(

ALANR  I had no problem getting the file(s) to open in BBEdit.

First off, make sure the BBEdit command line tool is installed. (Sounds like you have)

Then in SmartSVN's preferences for External Tools I just entered bbedit as the command. Basically I copied the default and simply changed usr/bin/open to bbedit leaving all else the same.

Then I bumped my new variation to the top of the list.
