Hi All -

I notice that most of the Rails team are using Mac OS X and TextMate for  
Ruby development. I too am working on Mac OS X and trying TextMate and  
(shudder?) EMacs.

I was wondering about version control. Are folks using Subversion? If  
so, are they using a graphical client? Which one do they recommend?

Yours,

Jordan

TextMate has built-in Subversion support.

I’ve been using SvnX

The TextMate bundle stuff doesn’t work for my style… maybe it’ll  
grow on me?

Jordan-

```
Textmate has great subversion integration. If your project is

```

already under svn then just press ctrl-shift-a to get the subversion  
menu.

Learn something new every day. Have been using TextMate for a while  
now, and never knew about that! Thanks!

p.s. My normal svn client is svnX as well.

I’m not from Mac world, but I can suggest two Subversion GUI clients:

RapidSVN ([http://rapidsvn.tigris.org/](http://rapidsvn.tigris.org/))  
eSvn ([http://esvn.umputun.com/](http://esvn.umputun.com/))

Although I prefer using command line client, eSvn looks good to me.

Hope that helps.
