A Better way to get ssh+svn in eclipse under windows

In order to get ssh+svn running in eclipse, I previously did the following used cygwin with win-ssh-agent. This was dog slow, and kind of annoying.

Today I figured out that eclipse can use a built-in ssh library instead, and this makes things MUCH easier.

preferences -> team -> svn , choose SVN Interface: SVNKit

This automatically can use ssh + svn in windows and saves a lot of headache.
