You can easily upgrade SVN without upgrading your repository, however
you will not get mergetracking(key feature of SVN 1.5) working without
upgrading the repository as well. So you should also upgrade the
repository. There are 2 possibilities:
- svnadmin dump /load
- svnadmin upgrade
the second choice will upgrade your repo without downtime, but it will
not give you the most optimized repository layout, but it will support
all new features

Greetings,
Lutz
