How to find SVN version?

Question

I'm on a Windows machine. When I type in svn --version, I get this:

'svn' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I'm using TortoiseSVN. Is there some way to view the version through it?

I have looked at this but the server does not output any version information: How to find my Subversion server version number?

Solution

If you have TortoiseSVN integrated with Windows File Explorer, then you can follow these steps:

1. Right-click on the desktop or in the File Explorer.
2. Click TortoiseSVN.
3. Click About. Versions of the components used by TortoiseSVN are listed there.

Just to clarify, "Subversion 1.13.0" in the above screen shot is not the Subversion Server version number. That is the client SVN version number. You can prove this by upgrading to latest version of TortoiseSVN on your workstation and without upgrading the SVN Server version you will notice the Tortoise About dialog box will show the "Subversion" release being incremented, even though you didn't upgrade the server. In short, the TortoiseSVN About dialog box does not show the actual SVN Server release version #.

@B_e_n_n_y_ I was assuming that the question is only about the version of the client. If this question is about the version of the server, there is another thread stackoverflow.com/q/141146/761095
