We are going to migrate from CVS to SVN using Subversion 1.6. But also we have another SVN-Server using Subversion 1.2 (no chance to update). So we plan to use the newer TortoiseSVN 1.6.x
Is it possible to use two different servers while using only the new TortoiseSVN?
Another solution may be using an old TortoiseSVN compiled against Subversion 1.2. Is this possible?
What about using two TortoiseSVN (1.2.x and 1.6.x)?
Best Answer
Yes, you can use new TortoiseSVN with old server. Quoting Subversion FAQ:
But, you cannot use different Subversion clients with the same working copy, because Subversion working copy format is not backward compatible and Subversion automatically upgrade it to the latest format.
