Hello Apache Subversion Team,
Quick question hoping for your advice please?
Please see below, 1-3.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks.

I am in the process of trying to find an SVN.EXE client for Windows operati=
ng systems (e.g. Windows 2022).
In the past I had used the COLLAB NET SVN client.
But COLLAB NET has been absorbed by a company called DIGITAL AI - which no =
longer provides COLLAB NET's products.

I browsed your Apache SVN site: https://subversion.apache.org/packages.h=
tml
On that page I found the below list of SVN binary providers=
.
I am looking for the most robust/reliable SVN.EXE client fo=
r more recent Microsoft WINDOWS versions (e.g. WINDOWS 2022).
Windows:
SlikSVN (32- and 64-bit (x64 and ARM64) client MSI
TortoiseSVN (optionally installs 32- and 64-bit (x64 and ARM64) command lin=
e tools and svnserve; supported and maintained by the TortoiseSVN project)
VisualSVN (32- and 64-bit client and server; supported and maintained by Vi=
sualSVN)
Cirata (32- and 64-bit client and server; supported and certified by Cirata=
(formerly WANdisco))
PoshSvn, primarily a PowerShell client but also includes the standard comma=
nd line tools; maintained by Timofei Zhakov.
3
Because Apache lists these on the site above I assume they =
are ALL reliable.
Can you personally recommend which is the best?
NOTE -- the system I am working on has to run extremely wel=
l, and SVN.EXE usage is crucial,
