There are 3 parts to this task:
1) SVN 1.7 API [done]
2) SVN 1.7 connector [in progress]
3) SVN 1.7 support in the main plug-in

2) SVN 1.7 connector [done]
3) SVN 1.7 support in the main plug-in [in progress]
Needs to be evaluated and corrected:

- Project's working copy upgrade methods [done].

Early access build and Juno simultaneous release build - both will be available at the end of next week.

Thanks for the work, I can't wait to try it.

The only thing I wonder is, where do I get the SVN 1.7 connector?

Is there a beta updatesite on polarion?
Comment 6 Alexander Gurov CLA 2012-03-17 13:28:30 EDT
The builds are publsihed ("early access" and "Juno simultaneous release").
I'm not sure if it will be stable enough, but at least it worked for me and I'll be testing it more from now on.
Please note that the SVN 1.7 connector requires converting your working copies into its own format. That could be done with the Team menu action "Upgrade projects...". The working copies can't be "downgraded" back after. So, if you wish is just to test the SVN 1.7 connector and then go back to using SVN 1.6 compatible one, then it's better to commit all that is needed to be committed, then try it, then recheckout again.

P.S.
Anyway, the next steps is to update the existing SVN 1.6 compatible connector and include the SVN Kit-based connector for SVN 1.7. Since the last one is still in the beta stage I can't estimate the time when Subversive will work with SVN 1.7 with the pure Java connector.
