As you might have guessed from the directory where it resided
(contrib/client-side), it is a client side script.
You will need to have an installation of subversion on your windows
box. The subversion installation also contains the subversion client
-- a program called "svn" (and "svn.exe" on Windows). On unix this
client program is usuall under /usr/local/bin. I do not know on
Windows.
The directory that contains the svn.exe becomes you SVN_BINDIR
Please have a look at the INSTALL file in the zip file for windows
installation instructions. If you get the windows binary distribution
(http://subversion.tigris.org/files/documents/15/24361/svn-win32-1.2.1.zip),
the client is part of the distribution. In which case SVN_BINDIR is
(where you unzip your distribution to)\bin. However, the .pl script
that you are referring to is not part of the binary distribution! So
you will have to either install from source or install the binary
distribution and use the contrib files from the source distribution.
