Mac OSX Subversion Client: Cornerstone
Tue, 07/08/2008 - 8:11am — shrop
Cornerstone is a Mac OS X SVN client. I can tell you that this app is awesome!
The interface takes a number of UI cues from iTunes by using one window. The one window interface is much more efficient on a laptop. You do have the option in preferences to switch to a multi window mode.
Some of the features I really dig:
- Can create a new repo from the interface.
- Can drag existing working copies into a list in Cornerstone.
- The status of every file and folder is easily visible from the file browser.
- The file browser works very similarly to Finder. yeah!!!
- I can drag folders in to import files into a repo. I can drag files out to export.
- The inspector allows immediate access and the ability to edit SVN properties.
- Quick filters allowing easy viewing of what has changed today, this week, etc.
I feel like I learn something new about this app everyday. I can't wait to see what Zennaware does next to enhance this Mac gem!

I just updated and expanded that comparison for Cornerstone 1.1 and Versions beta 9. I've now switched my choice to Cornerstone.

Jade, Thanks for stopping
Jade,
Thanks for stopping by. Your original post was very helpful to me as I have also used both Versions and Cornerstone. I updated to 1.1 yesterday and am very impressed. In short, it rocks. Would love to see some merging capabilities in the future, but wow..
Thanks!

Thanks! I did check that out. Very good. I am still digging Cornerstone over Versions right now, but I love that there are two competing apps. Both will improve!
