I want to checkout a specific revision of a folder in Subversion using the command line.

I don't see an option for specifying the revision number in TortoiseProc.exe,

TortoiseProc.exe /command:checkout <url>

How do I get the revision I want? Is TortoiseProc.exe the right tool for what I want to do?

If you already have it checked out locally then you can cd to where it is checked out, then use this syntax: 

$ svn up -rXXXX
