If you are planning on switching revision control systems, I suggest something other than svn. There are a number of other systems available to the free software developer which offer serious advantages which might not be aparent to those who have not experienced them. Among them are arch, darcs, and monotone. I have used arch extensively, and I found it to be a powerfull tool but with a somewhat poorly designed interface. I have now been using darcs for several weeks and found it to be extremely well designed, but I've not used it long enough to endorse it fully. Monotone I have not used but it offers many of the same advantages.
