SVN Python API with TortoiseSVN

To use the SVN API with a Python script is it enough to have TortoiseSVN installed or do I need another SVN client?

I am using the cmd line features of tortoiseSVN but I'm looking for more advanced possibilities to work with SVN and wonder if I need to install another SVN client or so..

Thanks, Martin

Unless you're going to shell out to run a command-line program from within Python, you should be using PySvn or the "Subversion for Windows" distribution which includes Python libraries.

If you still want to run a command-line program from your Python script, use either the svn.exe that comes with the TortoiseSVN installation, or the one from the above-referenced Subversion for Windows. The TortoiseSVN command-line program (TortoiseProc.exe) is not intended to be used from within other scripts/programs like you describe.
