Ankh seems to do everything I need, so I haven't tried VisualSVN. I do
admit that for a few things (like diffs) Ankh is relatively primitive.
What are the main benefits in your view of VisualSVN over Ankh?

Maybe I should give VisualSVN a try... only problem is that it means
uninstalling Ankh first. (For some reason unticking the box in the Add-
In manager doesn't actually seem to do much.)

Having used both, I can say with Authority that I prefer VisualSVN is for a
couple of reasons
- More polished in terms of look and feel
- Integration with TSVN, so TSVN do the hard work. TSVN is very polished
and very mature and the VisuaSVN guys have seen no need to re-invent the
wheel
- Handles renames much better than AnkhSVN
- Pleasantly discovered that it can create a repository complete with the
trunk folder from within a clean visual studio solution. (Though I'm not
sure Ankh can't do this)
