IntelliJ 2016.2.4 svn client too old?
Answered
Today I upgraded my svn to 1.9.4 to try and solve a problem I'm having with my SvnX (1.3.4). It didn't work, so I thought I'd abandon SvnX and just use IntelliJ's interface to work with my repositories.
But in the Version Control pane (or whatever it's called in Jetbrains-land), in the Subversion Working Copies Information tab, I get the following message:
svn: E155021: this client is too old to work with the working copy at <path> (format 31). You need to get a newer Subversion client. For more details, see [...]
How can I upgrade IntelliJ's svn client? I'm running on El Capitan on the Mac, IntelliJ 2016.2.4 as mentioned in the title.

You need to specify the full path to your command line client in IntelliJ IDEA Subversion settings: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/2016.2/diagnosing-problems-with-subversion-integration.html#d166579e41.
Verify that the client path you have specified works from the Terminal first (try to perform update for the same project).
Awesome, thanks so much Serge, problem solved!
