I have no idea, but it works.

I think gclient uses the depot_tools one to update the files, but the
WebKitTools/Scripts use the svn in your path (for me, the Cygwin one)
for svn status, diff, commit, etc.  It might be key to have these be
the same version of SVN.

For a while, I was using the depot_tools SVN in my path.  That worked
decently well once I fixed all the scripts to understand different
line endings.  The one thing that I couldn't get to work right was the
commit-log-editor, so I switched to Cygwin SVN and have been happy
ever since.
