wc reverse migration
well, i wonder if such a concept as wc migration exists.
i am aware of the repository migration chapter on the great
svn book. but i happened to 'touch' my WC that was created
with svn version 1.3.0 (r17949) with either ankh or tortoise
created with svn 1.4.x (i am in the process of evangelizing
at my company and wanted them to see how svn can be
used with windows).
the problem is that when i try to svn status at my old WC,
which uses svn cli under cygwin (whose latest version
seems to be 1.3.2), it says
$ svn status
svn: This client is too old to work with working copy 'db/testXact';
please get a newer Subversion client
$ svn --version
svn, version 1.3.0 (r17949)
compiled Mar 14 2006, 17:06:45
is there a way to reverse-migrate to working copy so that
i can still work with the svn cli?
is there a link that deals with WC version migration?
btw, the repository still uses subversion version 1.1.4, the
latest official with debian.

i tried svn-dumping with my current svn version (1.3.1), but
i got this error. what should i do? installing a 1.2.x svn to
perform the dump?

Errr, my point is that you don't need to wait for the cygwin 1.4.0
binaries. Just install the regular Windows (non-cygwin) Subversion
1.4.0 command line client that gets installed to c:\program
files\Subversion. You might need to reorder $PATH to call the Windows
SVN instead of the current Cygwin SVN (or uninstall Cygwin's SVN.)
$ which svn
/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Subversion/bin/svn
I regularly run Windows specific apps from the bash shell, such as
ActiveState's Perl instead of Cygwin's Perl.

Thanks Duncan, so simple, so easy. I feel somehow stupid
for not finding it myself.
I have another question at the end of this email, I'd be grateful
if someone can take a look :

Thanks Andrew, that was my first idea, but as I said, the
svn 1.4.0 cygwin binaries were not ready by then (and still not
are).

My other question. I have a repository at my kubuntu 5.10 laptop.
I upgraded the laptop to kubuntu 6.06.1, and the corresponding
svn version (1.3.1) is not compatible anymore with my repos. I
guess I should dump my repos to migrate it, but svn info does not
show with which svn version it was created, and therefore I do
not know which svn version I have to install. I guess it was 1.2.x
but I am not sure. Is it important?
What steps should I follow to be able to acess my repository
again?
Follow my session logs with the issued errors.

I'd check out a new copy somewhere else, then if you have local mods to
preserve copy them over top of the new copy. If you aren't sure which
files contain local mods (because your client refuses to tell you), just
copy all the files (but not the .svn directories).

How about installing the subversion 1.4.0 command line client and
putting that in your path? Cygwin will run windows command line apps,
so you're not limited to whatever ships with cygwin.
