Subclipse does not really handle this part of the process. It is
based on the SVN API you are using which you can set in the
preferences. If you use JavaHL, then it uses the same SSH client the
command line would use. Typically OpenSSH or some other client like
that, on Windows a lot of people would use TortoisePlink.exe. That
client, and how it is configured controls the rest.

If you use SVNKit, which is what I suspect, it uses its own pure Java
SSH client. So this does not participate in the rest of the SSH tool
chain you are using. So that is the downside to using SVNKit. The
upside is for people not already using SSH it is easier to get
started.
