Subversion client for Mac OS X

This question is probably asked a lot, but are there any really good Subversion clients for Mac OS X? By really good, I’m thinking of something along the lines of TortoiseSVN on Windows.

I’m currently using svnX which is good, but it doesn’t support properties yet which makes it impossible to tell it to ignore directories (e.g. the build directory).

Are there any other good Subversion clients for Macs (apart from the command line of course !)?

NetBeans support for Subversion

Its good to see that a Subversion project web page has been created on the NetBeans web site. The aim of this project is to deliver good Subversion client support to NetBeans similar to that of the new CVS support.

Accoring to the web page, the project is currently in its planning stage with the goal of having a prototype in May 2006. More details of this can be found at http://subversion.netbeans.org/teepee/

I hope the project team looks at TortoiseSVN and gets a bit of inspiration from this product. This has got to be one of the best SVN front ends available (Windows only I’m afraid).
