Standalone SVN Viewer

I'm currently using tortoiseSVN to version control my localy programmed files. I don't run an SVN Server since one can use tortoiseSVN directly (look e.g. http://invalidlogic.com/2006/12/06/using-subversion-without-a-subversion-server/), as I don't like the heck about installing the SVN server. Now I have my repository and my real programming files and I'm looking for a standalone application (which I download, install and open) to point to my repository and see a nice version history; just like what the webbased SVN viewers offer. Thanks!

I like Sventon. It's open source and powerful, but you have to run it inside a Tomcat instance, and must have Java 1.6 Runtime installed.

I use svnserve as my private Subversion server. Svnserve comes with Subversion, and is quick and easy to install. The advantage is that I can share my repository if needed. Plus, the URLs are shorter:

C:> svn checkout "file:///C:/Documents and Settings/dweintraub/svn_repos/trunk"

vs.

C:> svn checkout svn://localhost/trunk
