SVNProtocolHandler
Subversion repositories served with Apache have the nice built-in feature: the repositories can be browsed with any webbrowser at no additional cost.
For Subversion repositories served via svnserve, this is not possible because browsers don't understand that protocol.
Until now:
The SVNProtocolHandler for Internet Explorer allows
browsing svn:// urls from within the Internet Explorer.
No need to install a Subversion client, just use Internet Explorer. This
also adds the benefit that you can click on svn:// links
and quickly the URL you received from a colleague via email.
Note: the protocol handler only works in Internet
Explorer. Chrome, Firefox etc. users either have to switch back to Internet Explorer
for SVN browsing or hope someone will create an svn://
handler for them.
The installer for the SVNProtocolHandler can be found
on the download page.
Note: even though the SVNProtocolHandler is developed by
Stefan Küng, it is
not part of TortoiseSVN and won't be included in
TortoiseSVN either. It will remain a separate download,
and it has its own
project page.
