Introduction
Over the last month or so, two incompatibilities between SVN and CodePlex have risen. I’m not sure which side caused it (see below for the error messages), who will fix it and when. Some details I bumped into.
CodePlex knows about both issue. I’m not sure the SVN team does yet about the second issue.
Recommendation
If you are using CodePlex with SVN/SubVersion, then you shoud stick to SVN versions lower than 1.8, or you will run into the error messages below.
So:
- Stick to version 1.7.x or lower of SVN and/or TortoiseSVN.
- DO NOT UPGRADE YOUR LOCAL CHECKOUT TO 1.8 OR HGHER!
(you cannot downgrade your local checkout to a lower version)
You can find older 1.7.x versions of SVN here:
- Tortoise older downloads (at the time of writing: 1.7.13 is the youngest)
- SVN older downloads (at the time of writing: 1.7.11 is the youngest)
