The TortoiseSVN FAQ file, answering the question of whether one can
use different SVN clients on the same working copy, says this is not
recommended.
The FAQ mentions Cygwin in particular:

    You must also be sure that all the clients are built for the same
OS. Client compatibility
    is only guaranteed for a particular OS type and metadata
representations may differ.
    You must not use a native Windows client and the Cygwin client on
the same working copy.
