Mike has been around the block with Subversion and knows the toolset intimately. Just as importantly, he’s seen firsthand how it’s used on real projects. Those two aspects come together in this book with the fundamentals of source control with Subversion, guided by real-world, pragmatic (of course!) experience. As a Subversion user and occasional noob, this is the book I want to guide me day to day and dig me out of those irksome holes.

I really like the organization of the book. I found Pragmatic Guide to Subversion to be very easy to read, and it really gets the information across in an engaging way. This book is clear, concise, and comprehensive. It’s an indispensable reference for anyone working with Subversion.

A good digest of Subversion’s capabilities. The author’s writing style is terse yet conversational, and the book progressed nicely from basic topics to those more advanced. Overall, I think the book is an excellent follow-up to Pragmatic Version Control Using Subversion.

This is a book worth having since the “full” Pragmatic Subversion book is too big for every developer on a team to read. I was a fan of Mike’s original Subversion book, and he’s carried on the style into this pocket reference. This is a book I recommend.

Pragmatic Guide to Subversion has everything I needed to get up and running with SVN on my Mac. Being new to Mac OS X, it was a welcome surprise to have examples in multiple operating systems.
