I'm using Visual Studio 2010 with VisualSVN and TortoiseSVN, and would like the option of being prompted to update from source control whenever I open a solution, the way SourceSafe did. Is that possible?

to update from source control whenever I open a solution, the way SourceSafe

I think this update option is not a SourceSafe feature but rather it is the Get everthing when opening a project or solution option found in the Visual Studio source control options panel.

When Visual Studio connects to SourceSafe it does so using the MS-SCCI.

So if you use a MS-SCCI Subversion plugin this should also happen whenever you open a project or solution.

For example the Agent SVN is an MS-SCCI Subversion plugin and it should work this way.

You will have to build an extension for VS which will use the TortoiseSVN automation API ( http://tortoisesvn.net/docs/release/TortoiseSVN_en/tsvn-automation.html ) and do the update when you open a solution:

Or modify existing extensions ( integrations) like AnkhSVN to do that.

I don't think it has a way to auto-prompt you, but have you tried the AnkhSVN Visual Studio Subversion Plugin? It allows you to easily update solutions, add to, etc.
