I'm planning to switch from CVS to Subversion (on Windows).

Looking for some good tutorials (online or books) to get started.

Version Control with Subversion book is quite good (and free!). It is especially nice if you already know what version control is.

And even more so if you're coming from CVS—as Subversion is intended to be a better CVS. The concepts and terminology are therefore intentionally similar.

Here is a nice guide for setting up Subversion: http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/001093.html

And this one is a detailed guide to using TortoiseSVN http://tortoisesvn.net/docs/release/TortoiseSVN_en/tsvn-dug.html

An excellent book for getting into Subversion is Pragmatic Version Control with Subversion, by the pragmatic programmers.

It assumes no knowledge of version control at all on the part of the reader so there will probably be bits you can skim, but it's still worth a read. I've been using subversion for years and I still quite enjoyed it and learned a few things.

We have some (relatively basic) tutorials on our site, including a few video ones.
