set SVN_SSH=C:\plink.exe
or
set SVN_SSH="C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin\TortoisePlink.exe"

set SVN_SSH=C:\progra~1\tortoi~1\bin\tortoi~2.exe
The environmental variable expects the value to be an executable file,
not a path where an ssh client exists. The client expects to pass
command-line arguments to the value of SVN_SSH, so a directory won't work.
