Python script use to change SVN working copy format from 1.4, 1.5, 1.6 to 1.4, 1.5, 1.6:
Example usage:
python change-svn-wc-format.py <working copy path> 1.4 –verbose –force
This will convert the working copy path into 1.4. This is useful if you are experiencing slow update or generally cannot update or use your subversion installation because its error says that the client is too old. You might want to convert it to the version your client subversion is using.
