0. set up putty, subversion, tortoisesvn. Set tortoise to use pageant to ssh into your svn per usual faqs

1. Go to registry: HKLMsoftwaretigris.orgsubversionconfigtunnels (or HKCU if you prefer) and make a string key
name: ssh
data: $SVN_SSH plink.exe

2. change PATH by going to my computer->properties->advanced->environment variables and adding the path to your Putty install

3. make sure you specify svn+ssh://username@configuredhostinputty or it'll default to your windows username, which is probably wrong

4. use the bastard

Damn that was a pain in the ass to figure out. Seriously, wtf.

Necessary to use Capistrano with svn+ssh though...
