I recently updated to version 1.7.1 (from 1.6.8), and found that TortoiseSVN is no longer compatible with current SVN-CLI utilities (no more .svn folders).
So my question is: what CLI utilities are available for version 1.7.1?

Regards,
Alex.

When you upgrade one client on a particular workstation, you need to
upgrade them all. Same command line utilities you used w/ 1.6, from
the same places.

I think TSVN now includes copies of svn.exe, etc. as well - maybe an
optional part of the install?

Yes. TortoiseSVN 1.7.1 installer does have CLI tools like svn.exe (this option is checked-out by default).
But if I try to use svn.exe (from TortoiseSVN 1.7.1 installer) I constantly get either:

svn: The path '.' appears to be part of a Subversion 1.7 or greater
working copy. Please upgrade your Subversion client to use this
working copy.

or

svn: '.' is not a working copy

So my question remains: what !working! CLI utilities are available for TortoiseSVN version 1.7.1?

The ones that come with TortoiseSVN 1.7.1.

Unless you uninstalled the 1.6 CLI utilities, they're still on your
system. And unless you put c:\program files\tortoisesvn\bin (I think
that's the path, I don't have Windows available right now) into your
%PATH% *ahead* of the location of the 1.6 version (if it's still
installed), the 1.7 CLI tools won't get called unless you specify the
full path at the command line.

You right. I have some 3rd party CLI tools installed ages ago. After uninstalling it all have back to normal. Thanks.

P.S. sorry for being moron.
