I'll second that. One client strongly urged me to use SVN as well so I
installed Tortoise. Haven't used it in a long time so I forgot most of
it by now but it sure ranks as a "it just works" software. Because I am
an analog dude and can get rather impatient when some software doesn't
budge.
The smoothness of being on their file server when I needed docs was
amazing, and that's roughly 6000 miles from here.
