SVN 1.7 is a major change from 1.6. Subversion 1.7 clients use a new working copy format. Subversion 1.7 clients cannot use Subversion 1.6 (and earlier) working copies. Existing working copies created with Subversion 1.6 and earlier need to be upgraded before they can be used with a Subversion 1.7 client.
If you are thinking of moving to subversion 1.7, consider all the tools you use. For example, we use Jenkins, subversion command line, subversion from Eclipse, etc. We won’t move until we can upgrade all of them. There's no point in Jenkins checking out in 1.7 format, if I can’t use the command line to look at the result (I have to do that occasionally).
