Tortoise and editing files on a server

I am new to subversion and also not a Windows user.

I am asked to create a repository for a company. The programmers will
be using Windows PC's to do there work. But the files they are working
on will be on a web server, not on there local PC. So there edits will
be on remote files. In principal they want to use tortoise. How should
this be implemented?

Frankly, my recommendation would be not like that. Each user should have a private working copy... for best performance it should be on their local PC.

Sounds like the implementation strongly depends on how exactly the
programmers are working with the remote files. For Tortoise it must be
something transparent for the Windows Explorer and can be very slow
depending on the connection used.

But as this is a Tortoise specific question, should ask there for
supprt:
