QUICKY: Using TortoiseSVN with Total Commander

One of the best things about my favorite repository tool TortoiseSVN is how it displays the little overlay icons in over files and folders in Windows Explorer to indicate their status in your Subversion repository. Unfortunately I couldn't figure out how to get these little icons to show up in my favorite file browser Total Commander (formerly Windows Commander.) That is, until now.

In Windows Commander go to Configuration>Options>Display and check the "Show overlay icons, e.g. for links" checkbox, then click Ok. It's the last option under "File display" as shown in the image above. Now you'll see those pretty little icons in any folders you have Checked Out from your repository using TortoiseSVN.

Since TSVN 1.5 came out there are some minor changes. Here is a nice link to quick videos showing how to use basic TSVN features. Hope it helps you as well.

Thanks Hamy,
That video gives some good advice on how to not piss off your employees! Another good one: Always leave comments on what your Commit contains.
