I think it's ok to use all functions declared in any header files in the
folder
"include". I'm also using functions in svn_wc.h for my client.

you need to call svn_wc_adm_probe_open() first.

Why do you use the mode which checks the repository as default? I
would recommend the other way around since people with a dialup
connection want to keep network access very low...
