There are some good threads over at StackOverflow on this very topic.
What tools do you guys use when integrating with subversion on windows <- They recomend something called WinMerge, downloaded it haven had a chance to play around with it yet.
Not on the topic of "tools", but good reading non the less.
Is my source development file hierarchy a good one
Repository layout for branching shared libraries and keeping sanity

Another must if you are doing software development is to have a good file comparision tool for diffing/merging.
My choice is KDiff3. It integrates seamlessly with TortoiseSVN and Subversion, and is much better than the TortoiseMerge tool that comes with TortoiseSVN.

I see that is also supported under Windows? Have you buy any chance compared it to WinMerge or do you only work on *nix?

I exclusively work on Windows. Don't work on linux. I'm a Microsoft Dev
Yes it works on Windows as well, and its quite nice. You can even use it to compare directory structures. To be honest I've only really used TortoiseMerge and KDiff3 for file comparisons / diffing / merging. IMHO KDiff3 is much better, and since I've started using it I haven't found a need to use any other similar tool. It fulfills all my requirements.

lol by bad, normally when tools like that get posted it's from the *nix guys.
Cool will give it a bash then, although I'm not going to be doing any merging for a while, I agree TortoiseMerge is a bit iffy. I really only use Tortoise to keep track of non-Visual Studio stuff (T-SQL scripts and the like), the shell integration is very nice as well...

The default diff tool in Eclipse is working fine for me!
