Is There a Subversion Web Client That I Can Use

is there a subversion web client that I can use

There's websvn (websvnphp.github.io) and viewcvs (viewvc.org)

SVN web user interface

I have found new Web-UI for Subversion repositories named as cSvn. Please look at README.md file https://csvn.radix.pro/csvn/trunk/README.md/.

You can download latest 0.1.2 source package from https://ftp.radix.pro/pub/csvn/.

This Web-UI can be installed in wery simple way on your server (like all packages used Autoconf, Automake utility):

configure
make
make install

This is very good UI to promotion your opensource work because it support Google Analytics and Donation dialogue and also looks very good on mobile devices (you can see working site https://csvn.radix.pro to make you decision).

Enjoy.

Subversion IE client

It does not matter whether you use Internet Explorer or Firefox. If you don't have a Subversion client installed on your machine, then your capabilities are limited to readonly operations such as browsing repository history.

1. Apache Subversion allows you to browse a Subversion repository with a web browser if the repository is exposed via Apache HTTP Server. You can view repository contents, download files but you can't adjust versioned files or view the version history log.

2. You can install advanced web interface for your Subversion repository. E.g. WebSVN, ViewVC, etc. Such interface will extend actions you can perform against the repository using a web browser.

   If you use VisualSVN Server 3.2 or newer on the server side, then you already have a rich interface for your repositories. See the live demo here.

3. If your Subversion server is configured for autoversioning, then you can attach a remote repository as a web drive on your Windows machine. It allows you to access the remote repository as an attached drive. This way you can upload files to the repository, but it's still can't be called version-control IMO.

The bottom line is: install a Subversion client on your machine if you require more than just viewing repository history. You can't use most of Subversion's features without a client.

PS The plugin for Firefox you've mentioned is useless without TortoiseSVN client. The plugin just allows you to quickly perform TortoiseSVN actions against repository items you see in a web browser. TortoiseSVN itself must be installed for the plugin to work, i.e. Firefox does not become a Subversion client after installing the plugin.

Web SVN for Windows?

You can integrate PHP into IIS and run WebSVN on there.

Which Subversion web interfaces have a blame feature?

We use Warehouse, and are quite happy with it. It's written in Ruby on Rails, so if you're well versed in that, you're far ahead of the game. They also just went open source.

Subversion web based browser

I love Fisheye from Atlassian (née Cenqua). It might have too many functions for you taste (searching, auditing and code review support are all part of the package these days), but it has the best interface for browsing SVN (or any VC-system, actually) I have yet encountered.
On the downside, it's commercial (if you're commercial, that is. They provide free instances for OSS-projects) and hardly inexpensive.

You can have a look at their demo-instance at http://fisheye3.cenqua.com,
