This is the default client software for subversion built with it. It provides the simple but reliable shell svn command.
Download
You can download it from tigris.
Here are a few shortcuts for windows (use the subversion-x.x.x-setup-x.exe installer), Fedora Core 3 (use yum install subversion), Redhat.
Configuration
Proxy settings
Follow these instructions to setup your proxy settings. It even supports authenticating proxies albeit storing your password as plain text ;-(
Troubleshooting
Could not connect to server from behind a firewall.
Running from the commandline gave this output:
$ svn co https://svn.codehaus.org/xplanner/trunk xplanner svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/xplanner/trunk' svn: PROPFIND of '/xplanner/trunk': could not connect to server (https://svn.codehaus.org)
Solution: Edit your server configuration file to contain the proxy settings as above. This should fix the problem for the commandline client and the subclipse plugin.
