The Syncro SVN Client is a standalone, cross-platform graphical front-end application developed by Syncro Soft (the creators of the oXygen XML Editor) designed to manage file history and version control using Apache Subversion (SVN). It functions as a comprehensive tool for browsing repositories, checking out working copies, synchronizing changes, committing updates, and examining revision histories. Key Features
Visual Diff and Merge: It includes an advanced built-in visual compare and merge editor that allows users to resolve conflicts, compare text or images, and merge modifications side-by-side.
Revision Graph: Displays the history of a resource as a navigable, interactive tree/graph.
Annotations: Shows which user/developer changed a specific line in a file and in which revision.
Synchronize View: Visually breaks down incoming (changes by others), outgoing (local edits), and conflicting changes clearly.
Multiple Protocol Support: Handles repositories accessed over SVN, SVN+SSH, HTTP, and HTTPS. Current Status
Standalone Product: The standalone, independent Syncro SVN Client reached its End of Life (EOL) as a separate product. Syncro Soft discontinued its sale on September 15, 2019, and official support ended on September 15, 2020.
Integrated in Oxygen XML Editor: Although the standalone client is deprecated, the SVN Client functionality remains fully active and supported as an integrated tool within the flagship Oxygen XML Editor and Oxygen XML Developer products.
Because SVN is highly valued in enterprise environments for its stability and centralized file-level tracking, it continues to be used alongside or instead of Git by content authors, documentation teams, and software developers. Syncro SVN Client (Deprecated) – Oxygen XML Editor
