I created a repository using tortoise commands from windows explorer. I have the latest subversion/tortoise on my machine (1.11.1)
When I load an lvproject in the repository in NXG, I do get overlays on the project items, but every command fails with a message box saying it cannot connect to the repository.
From debugging, it looks like the issue is that SharpSvn library we use can't handle the latest subversion repository format. I created another repository using the svnadmin CLI with the "--pre-1.6-compatible" flag and was then able to interact with it from NXG.

Did you have the project checked out? Also, did you say remember password for your SVN repo? I wonder if you are running into any of these issues:

  1. the project needs to be checked out before the toolkit can work - link
  2. toolkit fails if the user hasn't said "remember password" for their SVN repo -

I have a project checked out, all the SVN commands are available they just don't work. I was never prompted for credentials.. I think because I'm using a file based repository on my local machine? I don't think there is much we can do about this issue anyway other than documenting it and having a more informative error message, right now it just says "Can't connect to repository"
