I didn't catch this earlier - as I think there may be some other issues
- but the proper
thing to do is the following:

Set objExecObject = objShell.Exec(cmd)
strText = objExecObject.StdOut.ReadAll()

I use things in a javaScript with the CollabNet build of the svn
command-line client, and it works very well.
I don't have any issues with buffering at all, but I do have to read all
of it .

For some reason doing the loop just doesn't work - I think WSH doesn't
buffer right for that to function or something.

Ok,

I've changed the script a bit, incorporated the changes suggested by Uli
& Ben:

Function runCmd(cmd, msg)
        debug("Function: runCmd: " & msg)
        Dim objShell
        Dim objExecObject

        Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
        Set objExecObject = objShell.Exec(cmd)

        ' wait for it to finish
        i = 0
        do while objExecObject.Status = 0
                WScript.Sleep 100
                i = i + 1
                debug("Loop " & i)
        loop

        LogSectionOpen "runCmd"
        Log "StdOut", objExecObject.StdOut.ReadAll, LOG_NORMAL
        Log "StdErr", objExecObject.StdErr.ReadAll, LOG_WARN
        LogSectionClose "runCmd"
        
        runCmd = objExecObject.ExitCode
        Set objExecObject = Nothing
        Set objShell = Nothing
End Function

The loop counter shows me that objExecObject.Status never changes from
zero.
While running, the folder structure is created, the .svn dir, subdirs
and files are created,
but the working copy files are not. When the task is killed (ctrl-c)
the working copy files are created.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/443b45a5%28VS.85%29.aspx tells
me that
WshRunning ( = 0)The job is still running.
WshFinished ( = 1) The job has completed.

Is SVN not returning a correct status? How can I tell? This seems to
be distinct to the ExitCode, which is another
property altogether.

Updated svn on my box for testing:
D:\>svn --version
svn, version 1.6.6 (r40053)
