What is needed to use Subversion as a source control

I need to install subversion as a source control tool for my SSIS projects for just one user on one PC(Windows 2008 R2). Sorry to add a new post as there are many threads on this topic. But i have been trying for the last 4 hrs to find out what do i need. I understood that there are both server and client. But is it a must to have both or i can use just the client TortoiseSVN. What are the steps to install subversion. I installed and worked on Microsoft VSS before. Do i need both ApacheSubversion and TortoiseSVN?

For pure local work with SVN in Windows you can have just TortoiseSVN (while I'll recommend install Subversion CLI-tools, included now as part of TSVN installation)

Using TortoiseSVN you can create (any amount) of local Subversion repositories, accessed via file:/// protocol and use these repositories as usual "big" repositories on dedicated servers with one small difference - these repositories will not be reachable from another hosts without additional tricks (easy, because easiest server - svnserve - it also part of CLI-tools)
