 Replying to [comment:3 haiqu]:
 > Point taken about it not being the responsibility of Haiku team to keep
 BeOS tools up-to-date. However since no-one else seems to be taking
 responsibility for this, the load falls back on us unless/until we get to
 being a self-sustained, stable and independent platform with CD images
 available, i.e. R1 release.

 Why? There's utterly no need to. The subversion client for R5 is entirely
 capable of checking out and working with the tree. The problem you're
 seeing is a general subversion problem because the svn team doesn't even
 remotely bother trying to keep back compat on the internal format of the
 .svn metadata directories. As such, *any* two major revisions of the svn
 client are mutually incapable of working with each other's checkouts,
 regardless of platform.
