Ok - you are right, I didn't need to invoke svnserve -t.
Unfortunately, even after going through and checking everything the
manual mentioned (including file permissions - I have now recreated
the repository so it is owned by my ssh user), I am still getting the
"connection closed unexpectedly" error. I do not have problems logging
in with this user using PuTTY, and once I have logged in with PuTTY, I
can easily check out a copy of the repository from the same server.
But using TortoiseSVN, I am unable to do the same thing via svn+ssh.
