I absolutely HATE shell-integration, so I avoid TortoiseSVN.
I'm using RapidSVN, which is standalone, native, entirely standalone,
relatively fast.
It's pretty much the functional equivalent of what WinCVS was for CVS.
One and a half thumbs up. The only problem with it is that it sometimes
gets a bit agressive reading metadata, so some operations, like listing
a directory with a lot (160 in my case) of subdirectories is a bit slow.
But for people that don't like shell integration, Rapid seems to be the
obvious choice.

Hello,
I'm trying to convince the windows programmers at my workplace to adopt
SubVersion instead of Source(Un)Safe (which they already hate anyway) but
the best Windows GUI client I found is TortoiseSVN which the programmer
doesn't like because it relays on Windows Exploder which can get stuck for
minutes sometimes.
Another client I'm a bit familiar with is Eclipse, but it's Java and is
going to be heavy on a laptop with VisualStudio already running on it.
Using the command line tools looks very unattractive to them.
Can anyone recommend any other useful clients (preferably Free/OSS)?
Thanks,
