Basically, I want to get an update of the standard command-line subversion client for Windows. I used to be able to get downloads of this quite easily, but it seems like registration is required these days.

That is... instead of bolding the word,...

I am currently working on a C project that needs to be fairly portable among different building environments. The project targets POSIX-compliant systems on a hosted C environment.
