Hi,
I've been using TortoiseSVN for a few weeks now, and all has been 
working well. However, it's recently started giving me problems - 
originlly when committing, and now updating, largish files.
I've been accessing the repository with an svn+ssh:// protocol so far - 
I have putty installed, with the key held within pageant. The URL is of 
the form svn+ssh://user@machine/path/to/repos and I'm using tortoiseplink.
The main symptom is when I go to commit a largish file (say 4MB). When 
the commit process gets to the file, the client machine hits 100% load 
(in tortoiseplink), while the server remains untroubled (although a 
process list shows that the SSH connection has been made. The file is 
never transferred, and the whole process just freezes. I've left it for 
up to 2 hours, but its definitely stuck. It ignores the "cancel button", 
but does stop if I hit the X button top-right.
Note that when things were working, I've dealt with much larger files - 
certainly up to 75MB.
When I copied the file over to a Linux machine and committed it there, I 
found that I then couldn't perform an update back on the Windows box 
using TortoiseSVN - exactly the same symptoms. Same result if I try a 
brand-new checkout.
I then temporarily made the repository available through svnserve 
directly, and tried a new checkout using the svn:// protocol - this 
worked just fine (I can't commit back because I haven't set up 
authentication properly).
The problem isn't a particular file - I have quite a few now that won't 
commit. And it does seem to be size - I can still commit small files in 
other directories (same repository).
And of course, my linux client can perform commits & updates without 
fault, all using the svn+ssh:// protocol.
Client Environment:
Windows XP SP2.
ToroiseSVN 1.3.5.6804
Putty 0.58
Server Environment
Linux Fedora Core 5
OpenSSH 4.3p2
Subversion 1.3.2
I have tried the recent 1.4 RC too, which also exhibits the same problem 
on the checkout side at least. I don't want to try on my real working 
copy though - not just yet.
I'm now at something of a loss as to how to investigate further. I'm 
getting no errors, and no logs, on either the client or the server. Just 
files that won't behave, and a machine that just jumps to 100%.
Can anyone offer some suggestions?
Cheers,
    Mike
