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.
For those of you who use TextMate, here's an awesome little AppleScript that you can put in your Finder window toolbar which will open the current folder in TextMate in directory browsing mode. Save the source as a .scpt file and open it in ScriptEditor. Save it as a run-only application and drag that app to your Finder toolbar.
I <heart> TextMate... Can't. Wait. For. TextMate. 2.0! I can't imagine how it could get any better...
