Yeah, that Tim's strange way of doing ssh. The line really *should* read

svn copy svn+ssh://pythondev@svn.python.org/python/trunk -r46640
svn+ssh://pythondev@svn.python.org/python/branches/NEW_BRANCH

Notice that you need to give the username twice.

It works for Tim because he created a putty profile that embeds the
username. It didn't work for you, because you either didn't use putty,
or did not create a profile.

Martin
