I can also read this in your screen-shot:

Can't use Subversion command line client: svn
Probably the path to Subversion executable is wrong. Fix it.

You're apparently assuming that your IDE works on top of TortoiseSVN and that isn't the case. You need to install the Subversion command-line client. TortoiseSVN actually bundles it, but it's an optional component.

In more general terms, Android Studio is based on IntelliJ IDEA, which is a Java-powered IDE that bundles its own Subversion client. Most likely, you are using latest TortoiseSVN and it created a Subversion 1.8 working copy. Most Java-based IDEs do not support 1.8 yet. Perhaps it allows to use the command-line client as workaround.

Solutions:

Get an older TortoiseSVN
Wait for a newer Android Studio
Install the command-line client as the program suggests

Edit: apparently, it isn't entirely clear how to install the command-line client packed with TortoiseSVN. Here's a screen-shot from the installation wizard I found in Google images (it shouldn't be very different from latest release):

*.msi

You need to click on the little rectangle with the red cross to the left of "command line client tools" and select "This component will be available" (or a similar text). Then click Next until you're done.

May you give a link from where I can install command-line client? – saakian Apr 10 '14 at 14:24
[Sure](https://www.google.es/search?q=tortoisesvn&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:es-ES:official&client=firefox-a&channel=sb&gfe_rd=cr&ei=d6pGU421A-nQ8gfEmICgCQ) – Álvaro González Apr 10 '14 at 14:28
Out of curiosity, what happens when you click on "Fix it"? – Álvaro González Apr 10 '14 at 14:29
edited the question please take a look – saakian Apr 10 '14 at 14:33
That looks promising then. If it doesn't detect it you've installed it, you can enable it at that dialogue. – Álvaro González Apr 10 '14 at 14:41
the link you gave is the link to TortoiseSVN. I already have it and do not want to downgrade, I wish to install the command line client – saakian Apr 10 '14 at 14:44
I've edited my answer to post a screen-shot. If you still can't get it, perhaps you can try another IDE until yours get upgraded. NetBeans already supports 1.8 and it has an [Android plug-in](http://nbandroid.org/). – Álvaro González Apr 10 '14 at 14:58
i am looking for a solution for 1 hour, this was it! thanks! – Ebru Güngör May 17 '16 at 12:06
