Subversion: Review changes

I'm used to VSSConneXion, and love the feature 'Review Changes' where I can go through every changed file and comment the change while looking at it:

Now I'm trying to get used to SubVersion and Tortoise. Is there a similar feature available? I can get a list of changed file, and I can diff each file for changes, but I can't find a way to comment on the changes while looking at the diffs.

I typically simply use the TortoiseSVN commit dialog for this.

  • svn commit => dialog shows up with list of changes
  • one by one, I can review the changes, and write my commit message in the dialog
  • the best part of it is that TortoiseSVN remembers commit messages. Even if I click cancel, I can continue with the same message previously created.

Very simple, no extra tools needed.

If you're asking for generic code review, there are lots of tools that work with svn. One of the most prominent is ReviewBoard.

If you're asking about a way to add commit log messages, then there's a bit of a conceptual mismatch: svn uses atomic commits, so all the changes in a given commit get the same message.
