Looking for a SVN solution for 3 users

I'm looking for an simple SVN solution for my company.

Currently we're not using any version control. We would like to install a server app on one of the computers in the office and use it over the LAN for 3 users.

We develop websites using Visual Studio.

Any suggestions?

I have used VsTortoise for a nice plugin to visual studio. It is built on top of TortoiseSVN.

Others have already pointed some good solutions -- sounds like VisualSVN may be best for your needs as a server, with AnkSVN or TortoiseSVN as clients (or both -- multiple clients can be used at the same time quite easily).

The only caveat to be aware of is that while SVN has great forward and backward compatibility, for the best experience ensure that the minor version numbers are the same, eg 1.6.x server with 1.6.y client. It's a great productivity boost though over using no version control and very easy to get set up with.

AnkhSVN is a great Visual Studio plugin which also happens to be free.

Use some hosted solutions. It costs very less and keeps you away from the maintenance hassle. If you are not bothered about code ownership, you can go for free providers like google code. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/59791/free-online-private-svn-repositories

If you are bothered there are many commercial providers at a very cheap cost like svnrepository.com

So, all you will need is a client at your desktop. If you are using windows, you can use tortoisesvn, its free, stable and full of features.

I assume you are talking about a Windows-only setup. For that, I am very happy with VisualSVN as a server (brain-dead easy to set up!) and TortoiseSVN as the client.
