The SVN server has been upgraded to 1.7.7. You can read the SVN 1.7.7 release notes at http://subversion.apache.org/docs/release-notes/1.7.html.
While the release notes state that you don’t have to do anything on the client side due to this upgrade, please note:
- If you’re using HTTP(S) as your checkout protocol, upgrading your client to 1.7, in conjunction with the 1.7 server, will result in a substantial speedup of checkins and updates.
- There are reports of problems using Jenkins Continuous Integration server with 1.7, using svn:// checkout addresses. You should read this if you are using Jenkins and experience problems. The solution to this is to use the https:// address for your repository, or to upgrade to the latest version of the SVN plugin, which can be done from the admin interface of your Jenkins installation.
Thanks to Björn of the jEdit project for pointing me to useful resources.
