Here is an objective issue. I plan to use Subversion with Trac (trac.edgewall.org) as I do for personal projects. Trac project provides hook scripts for subversion that I integrated quickly on my linux server.

As Micah Elliott said I can see with this limitation some rising issues when trying to integrate other tools with subversion under windows. So perhaps that Subversion under Linux == Subversion under Windows in terms fo funccionality and performance but a Linux server seems to be better for extensibility.
