WinSCP is a very nice GUI front end for Subversion (svn).  You can read about
it and download it here: http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/

TortoiseSVN should not be run across a network when the Icon Overlays feature
is enabled.

However, TortoiseSVN's icon overlay feature is one of the program's major
assets.  

I want to use Cygwin's xterm to connect to the samba server that holds the svn
checkout directory and use Wine to run TortoiseSVN locally on that server.  The
user would be presented with a nice visual representation of the state of their
checked out Subversion project, and performance would be good.

On Windows, TortoiseSVN can display its icons in any file chooser window, and
in Windows Explorer.  I have also found that WinSCP's explorer view will show
icons for the local machine.

I would prefer not to have to run WinSCP in order to view TortoiseSVN icons. 
Perhaps a tiny Win32 program that merely shows a file dialog would be
sufficient to run in an xterm, if Wine would support whatever system calls
TortoiseSVN makes.
