E155021Unsupported working copy formatAny SVN action over a working copy (synchronize, commit and so on), using an incompatible connector (for example SVN 1.7 connector with SVN 1.6 working copy)In order to solve the issue you can:
  • select a compatible connector at Window->Preferences->Team->SVN->SVN Connector if available. If there is no required connector, you can check the Subversive Connectors update site section;
  • upgrade a working copy using context menu action Team->Upgrade Projects... (in case you wish to migrate your project 1.6->1.7 or 1.7->1.8). Please note, that SVN Kit 1.8 connector will work as is with the working copy in SVN 1.7 format and will upgrade it silently.
