If it says format '3' while expecting '2' and you're running the
latest 1.4.x, then you probably were not running a 1.4.x version. In
fact, I looked it up and the format '3' code only exists in
1.5-prereleased versions. Did you run a beta-test version from
openCollabNet, maybe?

Because development versions use a newer format to support merge-tracking.

No. [Note: if it were, you still wouldn't do anything with the
information, because it's outright dangerous to hand-edit your
repository!]

One solution would be to install the soon to be released 1.5-alpha1,
because that supports version '3'.

HTH,
