A recent GUI for linux working much like tortuise is rabbitsvn. It’s by far the best SVN GUI I’ve tried.

Don’t forget to set ignore property to gen and bin, either in these directories or in base directory

in bin and gen:
svn propset svn:ignore “*” .

svn propset svn:ignore “bin
gen” .

I personally prefer working directly in the directory. That saves all the superfluous “projectname” arguments in your commands.

for example:

svn co http://myserver.com/projectname #this creates a directory called projectname on its own, only need to add the other argument if you want to
cd projectname

[after some local changes]
svn ci -m “here are my changes” #ci = checkin, which is the same as commit

[after some changes other people have made]
svn update

Before you check in, you might want to see what has changed:
svn status
this gives a listing of everything that’s changed recently.
