If you have just upgraded to SVN 1 7 on your machine  like I just did   and have a lot of projects in your Eclipse workspace which need to be upgraded  you can do the following in a terminal window on Unix-baesd systems    cd  eclipse workspace     lt - you supply the actual path here  for file in  find   -depth 2 -name    svn    do svn upgrade  dirname  file    done    After Googling a bit  I found what seems to be the equivalent for Windows users    http   www rqna net qna mnrmqn-how-to-find-all-svn-working-copies-on-win-xp html  See the answer by Alexey Shcherbak halfway down the page

If you re getting this error from Netbeans  7 2   then it means that your separately installed version of Subversion is higher than the version in netbeans  In my case Netbeans  v7 3 1  had SVN v1 7 and I d just upgraded my SVN to v1 8    If you look in Tools  gt  Options  gt  Miscellaneous  tab   gt  Versioning  tab   gt  Subversion  pane   set the Preferred Client   CLI  then you can set the path the the installed SVN which for me was C  Program Files TortoiseSVN bin   More can be found on the Netbeans Subversion Clients FAQ

You have to upgrade your subversion client to at least 1 7   With the command line client  you have to manually upgrade your working copy format by issuing the command svn upgrade      Upgrading the Working Copy      Subversion 1 7 introduces substantial changes to the working copy   format  In previous releases of Subversion  Subversion would   automatically update the working copy to the new format when a write   operation was performed  Subversion 1 7  however  will make this a   manual step  Before using Subversion 1 7 with their working copies    users will be required to run a new command  svn upgrade to update the   metadata to the new format  This command may take a while  and for   some users  it may be more practical to simply checkout a new working   copy        Subversion 1 7 Release Notes   TortoiseSVN will perform the working copy upgrade with the next write operation      Upgrading the Working Copy      Subversion 1 7 introduces substantial changes to the working copy   format  In previous releases  Subversion would automatically update   the working copy to the new format when a write operation was   performed  Subversion 1 7  however  will make this a manual step       Before you can use an existing working copy with TortoiseSVN 1 7  you   have to upgrade the format first  If you right-click on an old working   copy  TortoiseSVN only shows you one command in the context menu    Upgrade working copy        TortoiseSVN 1 7 Release notes

You can also get strange messages about the need to upgrade your working copy when there are other working copies nested into yours  I had this issue with a Symphony project were some framework folders are working copy  that I suppose have not been cleaned up properly before they were published   In this case  just make a file search for  svn  and delete the  svn folders that you don t want  don t delete yours at the root of course
