SVN - The SlickEdit Versioning Toolbox way

Derik Whittaker - Managing SVN via SlickEdit

“Anyone that has used Svn (Subversion) for any length of time knows that it is a kick-ass source control system.  But what does drive some people away is the fact that to manage your files you either need to use the command line or download the TortoiseSVN client.

Now using the TortoiseSVN Client is a snap and to be honest is a great way to get started, but not having a SVN client that integrates into Visual Studio is a turn off to many people.  Well the good news is that SlickEdit tools has a nice plug-in that will allow you to connect to an mange your SVN repository. 

Setting up your IDE to use the plug-in is easy as pie, and I will show you below.

I wanted to use the SlickEdit Versioning Toolbox the other day and of course didn’t RTFM and couldn’t seem to figure it out.

In my mind, I though I was supposed to put the SVN repository path in the SlickEdit Versioning Toolbox Options – SVN path. Not the path to the SVN.EXE. Doh! Man I hate making ID-10-T errors! LOL
