At work we're migrating from Source"Safe" to SVN. There is a strong

I'm currently using TortoiseSVN which looks very pretty but is
excruciating, frustrating and confusing in the extreme to use;
absolutely nothing works the way you'd expect. Is there a simple-to-
use Win32 SVN client that does NOT have shell integration, and that
can:
- look at the repository and compare two versions in the repository.
(I still haven't worked out how to do this in Tortoise).
- compare copy on my hard disk to repository HEAD.
- check in, check out, lock, unlock.
- merge capability is optional (we never use it, don't trust it).
I basically want something that pops up two window panes, one showing
the repository, one showing my hard drive.
For Tortoise, all these are done using the "tortoise svn" menu in explorer. To check out a repository (or a directory within the repository) into a folder, you use "svn checkout" from the menu. Once you have a checked out folder, commits, updates, add, rename, delete, etc., are all on the menu.
For another client, you could try <http://rapidsvn.tigris.org/>. Also look at <http://subversion.tigris.org/links.html#clients>
