You can't install TortoiseSVN on a Linux machine, as TortoiseSVN is Windows only. You've a few alternatives:
-
Use the command-line Subversion utilities over PuTTY to work with your working copy.
To check if you have them installed, try running
which svn
on the system; if you get something along the lines ofno svn in (blahblahblah)
, you need to install Subversion. The command you need is probably one ofsudo yum install svn
orsudo apt-get install svn
.Once you have this, you'll use more commands to work with your working copy. Search for "svn commands" with your favourite search engine for hints.
Find a Linux based graphical user interface, and set up X11 forwarding, so windows you open on the remote machine appear on the local machine. The University of Minnesota have produced a brief guide on configuring X forwarding with PuTTY; it looks good but I've not tried following it myself.
Set up a Samba share so you can access files on the remote machine directly using Windows, at which point you can use TortoiseSVN on your local Windows machine. There's a guide to setting up Samba shares on the Ubuntu forums, and the steps will be pretty similar on other flavours of Linux.
