In Eclipse you got a Subversion repository browser (see attached image) where you can browse your subversion repository and look at trunk, branches, tags, and history of each project/files in it. A similar feature must be implemented in Netbeans Subversion plugin.
Created attachment 62720 [details] Eclipse subversion repository browser
Have you looked at "Checkout" wizard? Just invoke "Versioning | Subversion | Checkout" from main menu. Then enter valid "Repository URL" (username and password if needed) and proceed into second step of the wizard. Push "Browse" button next to "Repository Folder(s)". Repository browser for appropriate Svn repository should be shown.
yes, it's the kind of browser I would like!! BUT, I would like it to appear as "Versioning->Subversion->Repository browser", since it's not intuitive to go through a "Check out wizard" just to browse the repository. Make it available the way I mention, and I would be happy for now:) (I change the issue type to enhancement since it's just a matter of making the functionality available from a menu instead of going through a wizard).
Completely agree with viggonavarsete . This functionality would be very appreciated, at least from my part.

Hi, I also voted to have a repository browser like that of eclipse described by viggonvarsete. Those are my motivations, please give it a look also if this enhancement request is very old. I think that it is important for a serious IDE like Netbeans to integrate a full featured subversion client: 1) Having a repository browser is more intuitive. Call the "checkout" is just a workaround (if I want just to watch the repository content why I've to specify the destination folder?). 2) With a real repo browser I could watch the svn project structure during the normal use of netbeans IDE. Currently if I want to see the structure of a project stored in the svn I must to stop my task invoke "Versioning -> Subversion -> Checkout" from main menu. But with this "pseudo repo browser" opened I cannot continue to work because netbeans IDE is blocked till I don't close the checkout window. If I have a real repo browser opened in a tab of the bottom panel I could code or establish a database connection or start the tomcat server having it always opened. 3) If I commit my subversioned project in a wrong folder of the svn server currently there is no way to delete it. (example I uploaded the project in svnServer\myProject but it should go in svnServer\trunk\.. how can I delete the folder myProject?) 4) Similar to the previous point, if I want to MOVE or RENAME a folder/file located on the svn server, currently I must download the repo, rename or move the desired file/folder and commit. With a repo browser I could do it directly on the svn server. 5) With the current checkout "pseudo repo browser" I see all the folders like.. folders! With a "real repo browser" I could have a logical view of the folders (and eventually different commands). For example the "trunk" folder has a specific meaning, the "tags" folder a different one, the "branch" folder another. 6) With a repo browser I could manage many svn server connections. Suppose that you have to work with 10 svn server repositories, with a repo browser you could have an entry in the "Service" tab called "svn repositories". Clicking on the "+" you could open the list of all known repositories. Then you can right click on desired repository and select "connect" to start to navigate through it folders. Currently there is no way to store data (ip, login and password) of different svn servers.
Just six years this entry is created ;) Where is the repository browser ? It can't be difficult, you always have all the functions needed. You just need to put them together. My wishes : a repository browser that can at least : * browse of course * add a remote folder * delete a remote folder * copy a remote folder (tag or branche)
It is my question too. WHERE is the repository browser ? Can the repository browser have the following functions : 1. browse of course 2. add or delete remote folder 3 copy a remote folder (tag or branche) Thanks.
I think something similar in functionality (not necessarily in look 'n feel) to kdesvn would have to be implemented eventually in netbeans in order to version control to be more useful. I'm constantly have to open kdesvn (or svn command line) to browse to some project's history, diff-to-previous, etc. The main benefit of having this integrated is that it could be multi-system aware, i.e. a subset of functionaly on all version-control systems is the same. My main use of version systems other than commit is to browse project history and diff-commit-to-previous. In the way it's currently implemented in netbeans, you only have access to browse open file history, you don't have the notion of project/folder history, etc.
I am up voting to have a repository browser like that of eclipse described by viggonvarsete.
