Error -> Build failed -> Please upgrade your Subversion client to use this working copy

Question

I am using Xcode 4.2.1 and I have this problem running an existing application on the iOS simulator:

svn: The path \'.\' appears to be part of a Subversion 1.7 or         


        

Answer 1

You can download and install a binary package from http://www.wandisco.com/subversion/download#osx

The package will install to /opt/subversion while the xcode version of SVN is installed in /usr/bin. If you prepend /opt/subversion/bin to your path variable, it will be chosen instead of the xcode version.

If you don't want to mess with your path, you can just alias one version or the other. man alias for details.
