I can't figure out how to use the command line for SVN when SVN is installed by Tortoise. I'm trying to invoke some commands found here:

http://jacqueschirag.wordpress.com/2007/07/22/changing-revision-property-in-subversion-with-tortoisesvn/

but I'm not seeing the same directory structure under Program Files (x86)\VisualSVN Server (obviously).

The directory structure is per repository. You have to look at your repository's folder, not the program folder.

ok, I tried to cd to repositories and also repositories\repoName and tried to run that mv .... command. I must be missing something here.

Did you look in your working copy or in the _repository_? (The latter is on the _server_, the former on the client.)

To my knowledge TortoiseSVN does not come with a command line tool. Install plain command line svn implementation eg. http://www.collab.net/downloads/subversion/ - it was previously just Subversion ;)

This, but I would recommend downloading the SlikSvn version -- well produced, easy to download: http://www.sliksvn.com/en/download

I second the recommendation to SlikSVN. No sign-up required for them.

That page mostly references setting up SVN hooks on the server, but you can call SVN functions through Tortoise like the following:

<Path to TortoiseSVN>\bin\TortoiseProc.exe /command:<SVNCommand> <Parameters>

For example:

C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin\TortoiseProc.exe /command:log /path:"c:\MyRepo\"
