I wait until it is finished - but it never gets to fetching revisions, it just exists quietly and returns to commando prompt.

The branches/tags config is what is generated for me. The path for branches and tags is:

https://svn.turntool.com/svn/turntool/plantool/branches/ https://svn.turntool.com/svn/turntool/plantool/tags/

I have tried changing the config for these, but can't find the right one. Anyways, not even trunk is being fetched.
