Installing server (on Windows) and client tools (on Windows, Linux and Apple) for version control

I installed and configured a Visual SVN server on Windows Server 2008. I was also able to install Tortoise SVN on Windows as my client tool. I'd like to get a client tool similar to Tortoise SVN for Linux and Apple operating systems.

http://www.visualsvn.com/server/licensing/

Few questions related to these installs...

(1) What is the recommended protocol for a repository, and what are the differences between them (ie: https, svn, etc..)?

(2) Do Linux or Apple operating systems require a specific protocol?

(3) What are the recommended Linux and Apple client SVN tools to connect to my Visual SVN Server? Right now, I only have Tortoise SVN configured on Windows as my client tool for checking in/out source code.

  1. VisualSVN Server supports only HTTP(S) access. HTTPS is recommended since it's secure.

  2. No.

For Linux, try http://rabbitvcs.org.

For MacOS, XCode should support SVN. Check out this link, too: http://alternativeto.net/software/tortoisesvn/?platform=mac

Assuming you're developing, too, the Eclipse SVN plugin is a Pop Favorite on all platforms.
