Who knows why one client is used more than another, really? Ben's reporting
numbers which are, I'm guessing, based solely on counts of HTTP requests.
For example, could it be that SvnKit is what finds the greatest use in
continuous build tools? If a continuous build tool is routinely polling a
repository for changes, it could rack up more hits than the more intentional
usage of TortoiseSVN.
