Based on the answer of Michael Perrenoud:

var info = new ProcessStartInfo("/PathToTortoise/TortoiseProc.exe", "/command:repobrowser /path:PathToRepository");
Process.Start(info);

/command:repobrowser tells tortoise to start the repobrowser.

/path tells the repobrowser which path to open.

The command you would need to run at the command line is something like:

C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin\TortoiseProc.exe /command:repobrowser /path:"myPath"

In C# you could start this like this:

String path = "myPath";
Process.Start("TortoiseProc.exe", 
        String.Format("/command:repobrowser /path:\"{0}\"", path));

This will use the Windows Shell to launch the EXE:

Process.Start(pathToFile);

Now, you'll probably also want to supply some arguments, so you can do that like this:

var info = new ProcessStartInfo(pathToFile, arguments);
Process.Start(info);

You'll need to set the arguments to a valid set of arguments for the command-line for that application.
