Subversion 1.4.0 hasn't been released yet. Neither has TortoiseSVN
1.4.0. You're seeing TortoiseSVN 1.4.0-RC1. RC means "release
candidate." It's pre-release software, and there's a big warning on
their download page explaining the implications of using it:
"IMPORTANT NOTE: TortoiseSVN 1.4.0-RC1 is linked with the Subversion
1.4.0-RC4 libraries. Due to various improvements made to the working
copy library, the working copy format has changed. Using TortoiseSVN
1.4.0-rc1 on any working copy created by previous versions of
Subversion/TSVN will TRANSPARENTLY upgrade your working copy, which
means that production-ready versions of Subversion/TSVN (1.3.x and
earlier) will no longer be able to read it! Please be careful, if you
use other Subversion clients (eg. the 1.3.x command line client), not
to use the TortoiseSVN 1.4.x release candidate on a production
working copy."
So my recommendation is not to use that until Subversion 1.4.0 is
also released, and then use only Subversion 1.4.x clients from then
on. For now, use Subversion 1.3.2 and TortoiseSVN 1.3.5.
