What will happen if I upgrade from 1.6.x to 1.7.x

I'm running 1.6.8 against an Assembla free repo (I am not sure what server
version). On a new PC I am testing, I installed the newest Tortoise and it
wants to upgrade my working copy.

However, I also use the codebase on my Mac, which only has svn 1.6 client
(and I don't have the inclination to change that right now). In fact that
is my test PC, I dual boot Win8/OSX 10.8 and want to use the existing Mac
working dir rather than check it out twice.

So a couple of quick questions:

1)TortoiseSVN 1.7 simply isn't backwards compatible to 1.6 repos?
2)It's 'safe' to get the latest 1.6 version?
3)Having a shared working dir for dual-boot PC, using svn commandline on
Mac and Tortoise on Windows... is that a big no-no or should it work?

Thanks for any help. I am about to take a laptop on my travels so I really
don't want to screw up my repo, just get things working!

John.
