That is because Martin Ott of Coding Monkeys maintains a very nice
binary package for Subversion. Just updated today to 1.4.2 in fact.
Xcode IIRC now supports Subversion (as does TextMate, my favorite Mac
editor).

TextMate's graphical diff is quite good. I can't speak to a
TortoiseSVN-esque tool since I prefer to use it through my editor, but
I would be unsurprised to learn that such a Finder extension existed
(I don't really use the Finder much). There is an SVN plugin for
Quicksilver if you use that.
