Those of you who are into that sort of thing probably already knew about (and love) the Subversion bundle for TextMate[1]. I've been using it for ages and its truly wonderful in terms of productivity and seamless integration. However, the one thing that always bothered me is that there are some times when I just want to check the Subversion status of a particular directory or perhaps check in a single file without opening up the whole thing in TextMate. Usually, I switch to iTerm, and "svn stat PATH" (or whatever) right from there.
But no more...
I just now found out that PathFinder (which is also one of those "change the way you work" apps that I use and love) has SVN integration built right in! All you have to do is navigate to a directory that is under svn control, hit Control-Command-S and voilá!
Holy CRAP that's awesome... One less reason to go to Terminal and, it seems, to develop a Subversion GUI client for the Mac...
[1] - If you do development on Mac OS X and aren't already using either TextMate or Subversion or both, get thee to Google now. It will change the way you work permanently and for the better.
This is one of the best, most comprehensive list of software, tips and tricks I've seen on a single web page which is geared towards development on Mac OS X. If you're a Mac-based gearhead, it's worth a read. You'll certainly pick up at least one or two new gems...

Why in the fuck hasn't apple come up with a "Hey application, stop whatever the fuck you're going on about and give control back to me" button?
Replace Apple at will with any software maker...
Seriously, this is ridiculous. The app should save it's state in memory and when any action occurs, the apps highest priority, unblocked by anything that is happening, is to respond to some subsequent action by the user that yields full control back to the user at the state before the action occurred...
Stupid software monkeys...
Okay, so this is waaaaaay too cool:
