Is there a command-line based version of svn for Windows? I know I can get TortoiseSVN, but that just doesn't work for me.

Newer versions of TortoiseSVN contain a console svn client, but by default the corresponding option is not checked.

The svn.exe executable is not standalone and it depends on some other files in the distribution but this should not be a problem in most cases.

Once installed you might need to add the folder containing svn.exe to the system PATH as described here so that it is available in your console. To check if it was already added by the installer open a new console and type echo %PATH%. Use set on its own to see all environmental variables.
