OK...
Yep, TortoiseSVN seems much more mature than RapidSVN. It reduced the
checkout byte count to something fairly reasonable, etc.
The reason I prefer a separate client to the explore plug-in is to be able
to see the branch/tag. That prevents mistakes due to me being confused
about which branch/tag/revision is currently the working copy for a file.
Perhaps that isn't a problem with Subversion, or there is a way to get
TortoiseSVN to display the current branch/tag, or at least some indication
that the current copy is not the HEAD.
Thanks,
