Thanks for the post. Found via Google when looking for a solution when I was having the same problem as you. Unfortunately I wasn't in a position to do either a fresh checkout or upgrade my SVN client. Eventually I worked out a solution using Rsync, listed it here in case it helps anyone: http://www.robsearles.co.uk/2008/12/10/svn-client-is-too-old-to-work-with-working-copy-solution-using-rsync/ Many thanks again for the post, helped me get one step closer to solving the problem. Cheers Rob Hi.

I have scoured teh web and teh tigris site and I can find no command that will upgrade my SVN client. I can update my repository only using TortoiseSVN. If I use my command line client to issue an 'svn update' I get the same error as this blog has posted. I need to know HOW TO UPGRADE IT.
