Subversion (both server and client) is available for Win XP and
higher. On the client side, Tortoise SVN integrates into the
context menu in Windows Explorer.
are you sure tortoise use external 'svn' binary (which is needed
for lyx to work)?
No, Tortoise does not have a separate command line client, but the
CollabNet Windows binary package does. (I run it on Win Server
2003; should run on XP and up just fine.)
Paul, it would be nice if you could provide some paragraph on this
for our extended
manual, so windows users have some chance :)

Pavel,
I'm attaching a LyX file (of course) with some notes on using
Subversion with Windows. I've supplied details for using a
combination of the CollabNet command-line client (which LyX needs) and
TortoiseSVN (which I find much easier to use for things outside LyX).
It is possible to get by with just the command client, but I did not
supply all the details (left to the reader as an exercise). My
inclination is to say that if the user cannot figure out the command
line operations on their own fairly quickly, they would be well
advised to use TortoiseSVN.
Let me know if this works for you. I leave it in your hands to
integrate it into the help document. Feel free to make any editorial
changes you wish. I also hereby transfer copyright of it to the LyX
developers.
Cheers,
Paul
FYI, since yesterday it is now also possible to use TortoiseSVN with LyX
without the command line client.
