Subclipse has no limitations, but the adapter you choose can have
considerations.

As long as it is accessing it via a server (http:// or svn://) then the
adapter has no idea what format the repository is, it doesn't matter. The
client is talking to the server, and the server manages those details --
so no issues.

If using the file:// protocol, then the adapter is directly manipulating
the repository and has to support it. Currently, the JavaSVN adapter does
not support the file:// protocol at all. The JavaHL adapter can support
either format or both, it depends on how it was built. The one we provide
for Windows supports both.

I would recommend using FSFS in general.
