"servers" is the name of the file, not of the section you should put the configuration into.
You should try to put the configuration into the section [global], or define a section specifically matching your server.

It is explained here: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.advanced.confarea.html

This is a very old early prerelease of the upcoming 1.7 version. With that old version, all bets are off. Maybe you upgrade to the newest build?

This are client-side settings which can be set depending on which server the client currently accesses, so the client can behave differently for different servers.
