How can I set up access via svn+ssh on Windows?
I have tried to run the svn command-line client (e.g. svn co)
on Windows, using svn+ssh:// as access method. But I can't get
it to work.
For example, I try:
> svn co svn+ssh://example.com/var/subversion/foo/trunk foo
I get an error message saying either "access denied" or
"file not found" (in Swedish, so these are guessed wordings).
I have tried various values of the environment variable SVN_SSH,
but nothing works.
Accessing the repository using https:// works fine.
I also have TortoiseSVN installed, and it works nicely using svn+ssh://
It is configured with the 'SSH client' value:
C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin\TortoisePlink.exe -l per -pw <password>
Setting SVN_SSH to this value does not help. (Using forward slashes
in the file path gives another error message...)
Can TortoisePlink be used at all with the command-line client?
Or must I use e.g. the PuTTY plink.exe program? I have tried
that too, without success.
I have googled around a bit, and this seems to be an FAQ without
a clear answer.
In other words: exactly what setup should be made to use the svn
command-line client on Windows with svn+ssh://
(both with and without TortoisePlink)?
Cheers,

I use svn with the plink.exe program that is part of putty.
There is a registry setting in windows, attached is my registry setting,
you would need to alter acordingly.
I also use pagent, and my ssh access keys, as well as putty from a flash
drive, so I don't get password prompts more than once a day either. Very
useful for svn.

Right, my problem is not to run a SubVersion server,
but to access it using the svn command-line client on
Windows, with a minimum of trouble or extra stuff
(such as Cygwin)

svn+ssh:// expects to connect to an SSH server. The SVN_SSH
environmental variable is a client-side setting. I assume you don't have
an SSH server running. There are a few around - some free, some not.
Running the one in Cygwin might be the easiest if you've ever run SSH in
UNIX|Linux before.
