eclipse svn eclipse-plugin subclipse

I had integrated a Subclipse plugin into the Eclipse to perform SVN related operations.

I had successfully checked-in, checked-out and commited my project to the SVN.

But now when I am trying to commit or update my project, it is showing the following error

org.tigris.subversion.javahl.ClientException: Unsupported working copy format

svn: This client is too old to work with working copy 'D:\EclipseWorkspace\EMSEclipse'; please get a newer Subversion client

I had tried to update the plugin through HELP >> SOFTWARE UPDATES... of the Eclipse but it is saying that the software is up to date and no newer version is available.

Should I switch to some other SVN Client. If yes, then could you please suggest me any other SVN Client for Eclipse?

Subclipse has different update sites for the 1.4 and 1.6 branches. So if you are using 1.4, it won't have updates. Get the 1.6 update site.

Whenever the subclipse plugin is not sufficient for you, you can download Turtoise SVN - it is a full-featured SVN client.
