Android Studio cannot find the svn command because it s not on PATH  and it doesn t know where svn is installed   One way to fix is to edit the PATH environment variable  add the directory that contains svn exe  You will need to restart Android Studio to make it re-read the PATH variable   Another way is to set the absolute path of svn exe in the Use command client box in the settings screen that you included in your post   UPDATE  According to this other post  TortoiseSVN doesn t include the command line tools by default  But you can re-run the installer and enable it  That will add svn exe to PATH  and Android Studio will correctly pick it up

This is annoying  I wish IntelliJ would handle this better than a startup nag    If you are using TortoiseSVN 1 8  on Windows  do this     Run the the TortoiseSVN Installer   It may still be in your Downloads folder  Select the option to Modify  Install Command line client tools on to the local harddrive  Add C  Program Files TortoiseSVN bin to your Path environment variable  Restart IntelliJ
