ViewCVS evolved to ViewVC https://viewvc.org A prominent user is the Apache Software Foundation, see http://svn.apache.org/viewvc > > I have tried to search for something similar for SVN and found WebSVN on > Github: > https://github.com/websvnphp/websvn > > and: > > https://websvnphp.github.io/ > > However, I have yet to find any examples on how its displays look or work > and it > also seems to be a rather old project... > > I have also recently used VisualSVN, which has some improvements over > Apache > Subversion but it is a Windows only system AFAICT and I do not like to use > that > platform... > > And it is not being updated with the operating system so it gets older over > time.
