Cervisia is not too bad, but.... I personally prefer LinCVS (now called CrossVC) (<http://www.lincvs.org/>). There is a tiny bit of fluffing about (editing one file - you can use Kedit or Gedit, and putting a link into /usr/bin) to make it run properly. Once done, it's worth the effort though. Much easier to use than Cervisia, and the non-free version will handle Subversion as well. One thing that Cervisia was better at was the initial checkout, but that may have change since I first started using LinCVS (about 4 years back :) ). > For Gnome there was Pharmacy, > about integration dont know.
