I think the capability is there (mostly, at least) -- you should be able
to build Subversion on the client and then use something like:
C:\Source\Subversion>python.exe win-tests.py -r -f fsfs -u
svn://server-machine M:\Tests"
I haven't tried it, and it may require a bit of tweaking, but I think it
should work or be pretty easy to make work. The server machine would
need to have pre-started svnserve with the root at M:\Tests where that
is the mapped drive for the Windows client.
