well, in that sense, SVN "works" for me too. a full checkout involves
a checkout command followed by a minimum of 9 update commands to get
the missing files and a commit requires several tries. an average
checkout-change-commit cycle takes me approximately 2 hours, all
of which require my attention to succeed.

my notion of "works" leans more toward git's model. the whole
checkout-change-commit cycle works about as fast as a local
file system copy, it succeeds, and i don't have to babysit it.

source code control systems should be as reliable, simple, and as
fast as using a cash machine. SVN feels like trying to arrange
an international bank loan for $20. :-)
