The actual error is "Expected FS format between '1' and '4'; found
format '6". It appears that your repositories were created with a more
recent format (or upgraded to it with `svnadmin upgrade`) and your
outdated SVN Edge installation doesn't know how to work with them.
AFAIK, SVN Edge 3.3.x was linked with SVN 1.7.x, and SVN Edge 4.0.x
was linked with SVN 1.8.x that introduced a new version of the
repository format. So I guess that installing SVN Edge 4.0.x will
resolve that error.

Two important notes:
* The latest and current version of SVN is 1.14.x. SVN versions 1.7.x
and 1.8.x are not supported, so your SVN Edge versions are linked
against outdated and non-supported versions of SVN.
* You've contacted a wrong mailing list. All SVN usage questions
should be posted to the users@ mailing list[1].
