Using SVN 1.4.6 with Intellij IDEA 12

Question

The project I'm working on is configured with SVN 1.4.6. IDEA has integration problem with it when I try to update/commit, it says:

Problems while loading file history: svn: E155021: This client is too old to work with the working copy at C:\Users.......

On my machine, I'm using SVN tortoise:

TortoiseSVN 1.8.0, Build 24401 - 64 Bit | Subversion 1.8.0

How can I use the old svn working copy with IDEA?

Answer 1

IDEA doesn't support Subversion 1.8 working copies, you can checkout the project using IDEA built-in Subversion client to get the compatible working copy.
