TortoiseSVN lets Windows manage the ACLs for the files checked out. 
Under most circumstances, this means that *all* files have executable 
permissions.  Cygwin's svn only sets executable permissions if the 
svn-property is set.

This is not a bug in either cygwin, svn, or tortoiseSvn.  They just work 
differently.
