The plugin is for an IDE that is cross-platform, so obviously the plugin
itself should compile and run on platforms other than Windows. Also,
some people may not have Tortoise on their PC (even though I cannot
imagine why). Thus the plugin does implement the most basic operations
itself using only svn.
However, Tortoise is a really great piece of work. I've been using it
for ages, it never failed me, its interface is very sophisticated,
people - including myself - are used to it (maybe the most important
reason), also it comes with a nice conflict manager,... dozens of
reasons to use it, really.
It seems unreasonable not to try to get the better tool to work when the
user has it on his PC anyway. So the obvious idea is to check whether
Tortoise is there, and if it is, make use of it :-)
