Yes, you should be able to use any Subversion client of the same or newer version with the working copy. The working copy will be auto-upgraded to the newer format required by the newer client, if applicable.

That should work.

I see several Google hits for this error. Many seem to be about Windows, though, which it doesn't look like you're using.

What's the repository URL in this working copy, according to "svn info" (if that command works)?

Some specific things I saw mentioned: if the repository URL is a file-protocol URL, does it start with "file://" or "file:///" (two or three slashes?) -- the latter is correct.

Or: does any filename in the working copy contain a colon?
