As already mentioned, not the server but you will need to restart apache
/ avnserve. I would shut them down before hand to make sure that you
can upgrade all the files svn files properly (this is windoze after
all). If your server never gets rebooted, now might be as good a time
as any!

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1160761/how-to-upgrade-svn-1-4-4-r251
88-to-svn-1-6
...is the best out of the first page of search results.

Remember that upgrading the server is only part of the picture. Any new
repos you create will get all the benefits but existing repos will not
get the full benefits unless you can find the time to do a dump/load.
You don't have to do this but I would think about it... Remember the
clients too.

Hope that helps,
