We use SVN exclusively for our projects at NeoSmart Technologies (private and public); and a huge number of highly-popular open source communities are also built around SVN...

Examples similar to Drupal: WordPress, Gallery2, etc.



Certainly a lot of projects use svn, even Django back to this original thread. I think every Python library I use is checked out of svn.

So do people just like to joke how it is so unusable? Or is there some glaringly obvious thing I am missing?


It's not that SVN is particularly bad for merging; it's that bzr and git are so much better at it.
