svn+ssh on mingw32?

[Richard Frith-Macdonald]

Has anyone managed to get svn+ssh working on windowing in the ming32  
environment yet?

After installing svn-win32-1.3.0 to use from the msys command line I  
get 'svn: Connection closed unexpectedly'

My ssh setup works fine for me normally (I was using it to access the  
CVS repository without trouble).

I have tried adding an ssh key without password protection so that I  
know that svn won't be confused by ssh wanting a password.
I have told ssh what username to use when contacting gna.org.

My ssh config file says -

Protocol 2
Host svn.gna.org
User rfm
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/insecure


I have also tried using the TortiseSVN package, following the clear  
instructions at http://www.logemann.org/archives/000099.html, but  
that has a similar problem 'Error * Connection closed unexp...'  even  
though it's using the Putty/Plink/Pageant software to do the ssh bit.


Any ideas?  It would be a pity if the move to subversion means we  
stop doing windows development.
