Download TortoiseSVN 1.5.7

The developers behind Tortoisesvn released version 1.5.7 of their program on Sunday. Tortoisesvn is an open source Subversion client and is intended for version control. Version control is especially useful, if not indispensable, when working on a project with multiple developers. The program integrates itself as a shell extension into Windows and can be used on its own or in combination with an ide. Version 1.5.7 of Tortoisesvn ships with Subversion 1.5.5 and contains no new features. However, the necessary bug fixes have been made and this version has been given the stamp ‘maintenance release’. In version 1.5.7, the following seven bugs have been fixed:
