Cornerstone was able to maintain modification time, so I know it can be done. Unfortunately, all the local copies of the config files are timestamped when I checked them out and not the last time they were modified.

I rely on the timestamp to know when a config file has changed and whne I need to push a new one out to the server (using Yummy PRO SFTP tool). The other issue is that it is NOT maintaining timestamp on checked out files. I have not been able to convince it to use my installation of BBEdit for compares (diff). One is probably my fault, the other is the way it works. I would have given it 5 stars but for two issues. I like the integration with the Finder, it makes it very easy to see status of files (up to date, changed, not added yet), and run Commits and Updates. It is slow, but I expected that, especially given the size of our repos (lots of small config files). So far I have been very happy with SnailSVN.

I had used TortiseSVN under Windows years ago and it worked fine for what we needed. I had been looking for an alternative for a while and came across SnailSVN. I had been using Cornerstone to check in and manage system config files with our SVN repos. PK1048's Review of Snailsvn Reviewed on 4/21/20 1:41 PM Useful but missing one critical feature for me star star star star star_border Overall, I do not regret buying this app- I’d much rather use it than the command line, which I suppose is the point- I am just regularly frustrated by its shortcomings and usability oversights. click “Add…” and it, rather than honoring the “…” with a followup picker, just adds the entire specified hierarchy whether you want it all or not (with "Committ…”, by contrast, you DO get a followup picker, but it does NOT intelligently preselect modified files, nor does it let you select entire folders by checking the folder itself- you need to manually check every single file, or check “select all” which will select and add/update even unchanged/unmanaged files!). It makes SVN visual, and thus much more approachable than command-line, but trips over its own feet by not actually offering further refinement of selections when you e.g. It integrates with Finder and displays a nice visual iconography of file status, but prepare to wait for half an hour at a time as it grinds through (auto-)refreshes on massive project hierarchies on your big archival project platter drive, taking half your CPUs and most of your system RAM with it (and the rare apparent pagefile-filling memory leak when you’ve tried to do too much between refreshes and thrown the whole working copy status into a tailspin). It works, although the setup is a bit headache-y with manually assigning associations to apps & locations that it already claims to know and/or pack with, and unless you know what settings to tweak where/how, the simple pack-in SVN versions will probably be mildly incompatible with the native XCode SVN install, meaning you can’t easily command-line fix things Snail breaks.

It’s not a contradiction to say that this app is a dog, while still being the best available Mac equivalent to Windows’ TortoiseSVN. NNSkelly's Review of Snailsvn Reviewed on 4/21/20 1:41 PM So close and yet so far star star star star_border star_border
