seen on 0.6.1 Build 900
on windows, unable to connect to the svn url specified:
svn://user@host/repo

Can't connect to host 'XXX'

if i use svn+ssh syntax, the message is quite different:

Can't create tunnel

(my host exists, my user too, my repo too...i was using tortoise svn & eclipse svn plugin before with the same parameters)

[wwwnick] Upgrade to latest release,
for svn+ssh syntax, please follow this workaround:
download & install putty package
copy plink from putty package into %windir% folder (or add putty directory into %PATH%), rename copied plink to "ssh"
now you have to ensure that you are using ssh keys (and are loaded into putty agent) with your ssh account and use svn+ssh://username@server/path/to/repository

this works for me well in 0.7.0 build 993
anyway, this project needs more documentation.
