I am trying to install an svn client on a friend's work windows laptop without much success. It seems that everyone is using TortoiseSVN nowadays, which unfortunately doesn't install without administrator access. Is there any way around it or another client I can try?

I don't need anything fancy - just basic http/https, but a GUI is very much preferred over a command line client.

Thanks!
