Mark,

I try to keep my eclipse subclipse setup and svnant setup separated,
because they have nothing to do with each other directly. You should
imagine using svnant outside eclipse for a moment, and how you would
set it up.

You have several options:

You can specify and use the svnkit adapter, as long as it is on ant's
classpath, using the svnkit included in the svnant zip, AND specified
in your <svn> tasks

You can install javahl on your machine, which is most commonly
accomplished by installing a binary subversion package and making sure
that the javahl dll (for Windows systems) is on a directory in your
system path. I believe if you look at the directory you specified you
will not find a dll, you will find classes used by subclipse/java to
access javahl, hence the "clientadapter" part.

You can use the svn on the command line for svnant, but the svn
binaries must be on the path... available everywhere. I assume they
were, but just in case.
