I agree. I haven't worked with next-gen SCMs (git etc.) but Subversion, for what it does, is fine. The basic reasoning behind choosing ClearCase is simple -- the > management needs someone to provide us with support and help us in > case of technical difficulties. You might be disappointed by IBM Israel quality of support for ClearCase. In the army (obviously being a large customer with a good support contract) we weren't satisfied. IBM might be a large firm with impressive sales, but as far as ClearCase support goes, they didn't deliver. ..how vastly superior SVN is, compared to any other > offering. Technically, this is not true. ClearCase is more sophisticated. In addition to barebones SCM, it offers a development workflow (called "UCM") integrating with their issue-tracking (ClearQuest), dynamic views, IDE integration and some more features -- but this comes at a price of very bad performance. So still, all in all I recommend against ClearCase, no matter what other SCM you chose. As to your main question (SVN support), sorry but I have no pointers. Good luck.
