can i use TSVN 1.6.0 with SVN server 1.5.2?

Hi,

I am using Collabnet's command line client v. 1.5.2, and SVN server 1.5.2. I
upgraded TSVN 1.5.2.x to 1.6.0 and when I try to update some of the source
code, it gives me the error:

C:\works\trunk>svn cleanup
svn: This client is too old to work with working copy 'Device'.  You need
to get a newer Subversion client, or to downgrade this working copy.
See http://subversion.tigris.org/faq.html#working-copy-format-change
for details.

I read the webpage and not quite sure what it means. It gives the example of
metadata issue during upgrade from 1.4.4 to 1.5.0. Does it refer to client r
server?

In my case, can I use TSVN 1.6.0, command line client 1.5.2 and server
1.5.2? Please advice.

Thank you. A.

All 1.x clients & servers are compatible via the RA layer.

To use multiple clients with the same WC, they all must be the same
1.x version. IOW, now that you've touched your WC with TSVN 1.6.0, you
need a 1.6.x command line client. You can keep on running 1.5.2 on the
server, as the RA layer handles compatibility there.
