tons of companies and projects are still using SVN. Also new projects. 
While git is great, it is also very easy to destroy a GIT repo.This is a major 
reason why some companies still prefer SVN.The other argument is security. SVN 
is strictly centralised and file based. So you cannot take the whole projects 
offline (sometimes that is bad, sometimes good) and you can set the access to 
very specific portions of the code. 
So I'd highly recommend not removing the SVN support.

 There has been a discussion going on in the NetBeans Users list about 
removing support for SVN. And it was recommended to bring up the topic 
here.

Just to give me 2 cents into the thought of removing Subversion support 
from NetBeans. I am against it just because older FLOSS projects and of 
course older internal projects for corporations use Subversion. So I 
think removing support for Subversion from NetBeans would be a bad 
overall move.

Just so that you have a little background on me. I use ClearCase and 
Subversion for the corporation I work for. For my personal projects 
located on BitBucket I use Mercurial. And for most part in both cases I 
use the command-line for most of my source code control interaction. So 
I know that I am an outlier, but my fellow developers need to GUIs to 
interact with source code control.
