+Mac users jealous of the excellent Subversion support in the Windows-only app [TortoiseSVN][4], need covet no longer. [SCPlugin][1] does for the Mac OS X Finder what TortoiseSVN does for Windows -- provides easy-to-use access to Subversion repositories without the need to jump over to a separate application.
+
+I've been looking for something that would apply the Mac user experience to Subversion for some time (currently I use BBEdit for accessing Subversion files, it works but it's a little cumbersome) and SCPlugin, while not perfect, is the closest I've seen.
+
+The site claims that v0.7, is "now ready to be your one-and-only Subversion interface." Whether or not that's true for everyone depends on your working habits, but it does provide any easy way to access files from the Finder.
+
+Worth noting is that SCPlugin has the addition of a repository browser listed as one of its possible future developments, which could help make Subversion on a Mac even more Mac-like. Of course, depending on how it's setup, the coming Time Machine features in OS X 10.5 could eliminate the need for an outside versioning software.
