title: SVN commands not working on Cygwin
body: <p>I am trying to access a source code repository through CYGWIN, right after I have successfully checked out files through windows explorer, but it keeps giving me a 'host not found error in CYGWIN.</p>
  
  <p>Trying to execute a <code>svn co</code> command for checkout in CYGWIN.</p>
  
  <p>In the SVNTortoise network settings I have included my proxy server and username/password already.</p>
  
  <p>Please let me know what I am missing here.
  Below is the exact scenario from my cygwin bash while I am doing so: </p>
  
  <pre><code>bash-3.2$ cd
  bash-3.2$ svn --version
