Jun, I apologize... I didn't mean to make it sound like everyone should be using command line SVN! My recommendation is limited to the poor soul(s) that will be tasked with getting the repository moved and ready to go... I've used a number of GUI clients and found that most implement only a sub-set of SVN features. For fine-grained operations, I've had to fallback to the command line to get things done. Also, there is an issue with speed. Visual updates in a GUI client slow SVN operations down considerably... so... if you're getting paid hourly - disregard anything I've said. ;-)
