But once you've experienced SVN's atomic commits, remote moving,
renaming, tagging and branching, etc., you'll wonder how you ever
lived without it. ;-) Some of the stuff we've done with the Struts
repo, since we switched to SVN, we probably wouldn't have dreamed of
trying with only CVS.

I've done all of the above with CVS. And sure, it is less than ideal. But those generally aren't day-to-day operations.


Day-to-day the IDE is my view unto the code, and its ability to work seamlessly with the repository is key. Tool support will catch up for SVN, and that will be a glorious day!

cheers.
