Check out files from Subversion repositoryIn the Get from Version Control dialog, click Add Repository Location and specify the repository URL. Click Check Out. In the dialog that opens, specify the destination directory where the local copy of the repository files will be created, and click OK.
You cannot generate private key from public key but you can generate public key from the private key using puttygen. As @alfasin mentioned if you could generate the private key from public key then RSA would be useless and this would make you vulnerable to attack.
Open the Repository Browser: Right-Mouse Button (RMB) on the newly created folder ==> TortoiseSVN ==> Repo-browser (or immediately Update to revision on a subfolder). Navigate to the folder you want to checkout completely. Press RMB on that subfolder, and select 'Update item to revision'. Press OK.
If you need to use a custom key just for svn, the following will work:
SVN_SSH="ssh -i /path/to/key_name"
export SVN_SSH
svn commands

Add this entry to your ~/.ssh/config file:
Host YOUR_SERVER IdentityFile YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH # (ex: ~/.ssh/rsa) User USER_NAME For more options, see the ssh_config man page.
