i'm looking for a subversion client that hasn't a GUI but is accessible only through shell commands. I've installed Tortoise SVN but it adds some items to the context menu of files and folder and i don't want this changes. I hope this is not a duplicated question, but i've looked at a lot of questions about svn clients and i haven't found nothing about a non-graphical one.

The standard Subversion binaries are what you're looking for. They're available from here:
http://subversion.apache.org/packages.html#windows
Good luck!

No, it's about as easy as can be. The usual caveats apply with making sure it's in your path, but I believe that the installer handles that for you anyway. – Steve Hill May 20 '10 at 10:57

You need CollabNet Subversion Command-Line Client download here

As far as I understand the CollabNet requirements, it requires (and will automatilcally install, if missing) Java 1.6 and Python 2.5. I would prefere the old Tigris command line client, which works without this. Unfortunately it is no longer maintained. Does anybody know about a replacment without Java and Python? – gyrolf Aug 30 '10 at 08:52

I don't think CollabNet requires neither Java nor Python as long as we are talking about the command line client. – Piotr Owsiak Sep 22 '11 at 14:32

Confirmed, see for yourself http://www.collab.net/nonav/downloads/subversion/requirements/svn1.6_commandline_client_windows.html – Piotr Owsiak Sep 22 '11 at 14:35

Another option is SlikSVN. I'm not sure what the difference is between SlikSVN and CollabNet, but I've been using SlikSVN from Nant scripts for a couple of years without trouble.
According to this question, the CollabNet installer asks for registration, unlike SlikSVN.

One small difference is that the Slik Subversion binaries rename all DLLs, to make sure you don't get collisions with other Subversion binaries. – Bert Huijben May 21 '10 at 19:41

Funny thing about SlikSVN is that if you look at properties of their svn.exe you'll see on the "Details" tab that the Copyright says CollabNet (at least in my old - 1.6.12 version) – Piotr Owsiak Sep 22 '11 at 14:37
