Eclipse and Subversion

I wanted to commit the DB diagrams and scripts I’ve created to our SVN repo but I had a little trouble connecting with Eclipse 3.4/Subclipse.  I kept getting the error “svn: Can’t create tunnel: The system cannot find the path specified.”  I found a few forum posts suggesting switching to the JavaSVN(Pure Java), but that wasn’t showing up under Window -> Preferences -> Team -> SVN -> SVN Interface -> Client.  I installed the SVNKit plugin, but that didn’t help.

I decided to try using the Subversive plugin instead.  My new problem was that I had no connectors under Window -> Preferences -> Team -> SVN -> SVN Connector.  I then found this post http://osgi.mjahn.net/2008/08/27/getting-svn-running-under-eclipse-34-ganymede/, added http://www.polarion.org/projects/subversive/download/eclipse/2.0/update-site/ as a Eclipse update site and downloaded a connector.  Everything seems to be working!  I am using the SVN Kit connector.
