title: Is there a viable SCC integration for Subversion?
body: <p>What recommendations do you have for a Subversion client that supports Microsofts standard SCC API?</p>
  
  <p>So far, I've found two possibilities:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><a href="http://tortoisesvnscc.tigris.org/" rel="noreferrer">TortoiseSVN SCC</a>. Seems neither mature, active nor supported (no release since Jan 2005)</li>
  <li><a href="http://www.pushok.com/soft_svn.php" rel="noreferrer">SVN Plugin</a> from PushOK. Commercial, with pricing hidden behind a login page.</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Neither of these seem particularly compelling - so I figured I'd turn to StackOverflow.</p>
  
  <p><strong>What Subversion clients are there that support the SCC API, suitable for use with Sybase PowerBuilder?</strong></p>
  
  <p>Open source preferred, but commercial solutions considered - quality/reliability is more important than cost (within reason).</p>
  
  <p>Background information: Subversion server running v1.6, and other work is already using both <a href="http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/" rel="noreferrer">TortoiseSVN</a> and <a href="http://ankhsvn.open.collab.net/" rel="noreferrer">AnkhSVN</a> as clients. </p>
  
  <p><strong>Update</strong>: <em>Why not use TortoiseSVN and be done with it?</em></p>
  
  <p>Part of my problem is a peculiarity of the way that Powerbuilder works - all of the pieces of your application are stored inside a PBL ("pibble") file. Using source control at the file system level, you can only check in/out the <strong>entire application</strong>. If you want to manage things piece by piece, you have to do it from <em>inside</em> PowerBuilder, through an SCC based integration.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Update</strong>: <em>What's with those PBL files?</em></p>
  
  <p>Some <a href="http://pbdj.sys-con.com/node/42500" rel="noreferrer">more details</a> for those who are interested.</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>PowerBuilder stores its code inside PowerBuilder Libraries (PBLs) and not as individual ASCII text files [this] adds a layer of complexity to integration. (<a href="http://pbdj.sys-con.com/node/42500" rel="noreferrer">http://pbdj.sys-con.com/node/42500</a>)</p>
