Yes this is what im talking about when I define 'userfriendly' and 'fast'. SVN seems to have so many more options than CVS, which makes CVS seem useless to me. SVN seems more like a replacement. A better one.

Not much better than CVS

I don't see what I get out of SVN that CVS is missing. Changesets? big deal!

No built-in branch tracking ala p4's integrate. (Hidden away in the svnmerge add-on.)

Uses less-featureful diff (no -p, -b, -c, -i), and less-reliable diff3 (has given me bad merges).

Can't set default diff arguments ala CVS in a config file without writing a shell script.

Feels slower than CVS.

Can't get all the info for a changeset with one command. (files changed, log, diff)

Still too fragile, I've experienced both working copy corruption and repo corruption, even in recent versions.
