SVN Client integrated with OS X's Finder

Question

Is there a TortoiseSVN equivalent for OS X? I'm looking for an SVN client that will integrate with OS X's Finder and be added as Context menu items.

Update: Just found SmartSVN. Anyone with feedback on it?

Note, that neither SCPlugin nor the SmartSVN Finder integration will work on OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), because Apple has dropped the support for Finder plugins.

Note that Dropbox does work on Snow Leopard, integrated with Finder, both in context menu and modifying icons. – cregox Oct 26 '10 at 16:08
I've taken a look at Dropbox and it looks like it does NOT show a context menu or own icons in the regular Finder views, but only in its own one. – Mot Oct 26 '10 at 17:26
On Yosemite I use XtraFinder. Looks like Yosemite does have Finder plugin support via FinderSync: https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/releasenotes/MacOSX/WhatsNewInOSX/Articles/MacOSX10_10.html – lukenofurther Feb 13 '15 at 12:02

There is SCPlugin which is the closest match to TortoiseSVN on OS X. It adds overlay icons as well as context menu entries to the Finder.

Is this plugin compatible with OS X 10.10 (yosemite) ? – subbu Jan 23 '15 at 12:19

I don't believe so, but I've recently started using Cornerstone as a SVN client on the Mac and I'm super-happy with it.

It's about $60 and has a 30 day trial. Also try "Versions". I trailed it for a few weeks and it was the "best other" SVN client, but not as good as Cornerstone (IMO).

Google found this:

http://scplugin.tigris.org/

doesn't seem to be as slick as tortoise, but at least it's a start.

I tried Versions for a little while, but it often got confused and irritated me quite a lot.

You may be interested in Versions. Not exactly what you're looking for but close

Agreed. SCPlugin is the best option out there. But it's a bit buggy in the latest release of OS X. Has been for a little while. Another alternative is PathFinder which is a very slick Finder replacement, that has SCPlugin integrated, as well as a console, and various other SVN integrations. It's a commercial product, but well worth the money.

In my opinion svn-finder scripts are the best solution for leopard or snowleopard becauce scplugin will not work with Finder in those systems. You can download scripts from: http://svn-finder.sourceforge.net/ I also found easySVN http://sourceforge.net/projects/easy-svn/ which is not so bad and free.
