You need to download and install SVN on your Windows box, the link is here http://www.collab.net/downloads/subversion/

Then follow this link http://www.cs.usask.ca/~wew036/latex/env.html to add SVN to your environment variable PATH

......;c:\path\to\svn\install\dir\bin

Notice you need to get the right path there and point it to the "bin" folder.

After that, open a cmd.exe shell and run "svn --version". You should get a version report from svn if you set up correctly.

Mark,

Actually the machine I have available at work to do this is a windows 
box, so I'm running the wrapper. I've already pulled down the working 
copy into projects with no problem (using tortoise). If I run the ant 
script outside of CC it builds successfully. I think this is less likely 
to be an issue.

Hung Huynh and Dan Rollo both mentioned that I need svn to run on an OS 
level in order for this work (thanks for the tip guys). Not exactly sure 
how to do this in windows. Is it just a matter of setting an evironment 
variable for "svn" to point to the subversion binary?

I was just assuming that the CC svn plugin was self contained and didn't 
need this.
