  • Goto the turtoise website hosted by tigris:
http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/
  • Check for the latest version section and click the link provided for the download page, you can choose between the 32/64 bit version. It's also indicated against which version of subversion (mine was 1.6.9) tortoise is build.
  • The download will automatically start from the source force repositories.
  • If all went well you normally have the msi installer file in your download folder

  • Basically that's it for the installation to check tortoise is properly installed you can right click a folder in your explorer there you must find svn checkout:


  • It's quit simple and fast. Next blog I will explain how you can link your google code repo with your local tortoise client.
