is the CollabNet SVN Server as good as VisualSVN Server?


the tigris website

http://subversion.tigris.org/getting.html#windows

has a link to another svn server, which is called CollabNet SVN Server. Does someone use it and know it is better or as good as the VisualSVN Server?


Solution

  • Actually, CollabNet has the original source code of subversion. Check this out from Wikipedia:

    In 2000, CollabNet started the open source project Subversion, a version control system with over 5 million users.

    What VisualSVN does is to package this with a small HTTP server and to add a bunch of UI to make it easier for non-advanced users (and they do it very well). In the change log it is documented how they are incorporating -original- SVN versions, currently 1.6.1
