+<p>Apache Subversion 1.11 is a superset of all previous Subversion
+releases, and is as of the time of its release considered the current
+"best" release. Any feature or bugfix in 1.0.x through 1.10.x is also
+in 1.11, but 1.11 contains features and bugfixes not present in any
+earlier release. The new features will eventually be documented in a
+1.11 version of the free Subversion book
+(<a href="http://svnbook.red-bean.com/" >svnbook.red-bean.com</a>).</p>
+
+<p>This page describes only major changes. For a complete list of
+changes, see the 1.11 section of the <a

+<h2>Compatibility Concerns
+ <a class="sectionlink" href="#compatibility"
+ title="Link to this section">&para;</a>
+</h2>
+
+<p>Older clients and servers interoperate transparently with 1.11
+servers and clients. However, some of the new 1.11 features may not be
+available unless both client and server are the latest version. There are
+also cases where a new feature will work but will run less efficiently if
+the client is new and the server old.</p>
+
+<p>There is <strong>no need</strong> to <a href="http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.8/svn.reposadmin.maint.html#svn.reposadmin.maint.migrate.svnadmin"
+>dump and reload</a> your repositories.
+Subversion 1.11 servers can read and write to repositories created by
+earlier versions. To upgrade an existing server installation, just install the
+newest libraries and binaries on top of the older ones.</p>
+
+<p>Subversion 1.11 maintains API/ABI compatibility with earlier
+releases, by only adding new functions, never removing old ones. A
+program written to any previous 1.x API can both compile
+and run using 1.11 libraries. However, a program written for 1.11
+cannot necessarily compile or run against older libraries.</p>
+
+<p>There may be limited cases where the behavior of old APIs has been
+slightly modified from previous releases. These are cases where edge cases
+of the functionality has been deemed buggy, and therefore improved or removed.
+Please consult the
+<a href="https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/notes/api-errata/1.11/"
+>API errata</a> for more detailed information on what these APIs are
+and what impact these changes may have.</p>

+
+<p>Subversion 1.11 uses the same working copy format as Subversion 1.8 through 1.10.</p>
+
+<p>Before using Subversion 1.11 with an existing Subversion 1.7 or older
+working copy, users will be required to run the <tt>svn upgrade</tt> command
+to upgrade working copy metadata to the new format. This command may take a
+while in some cases, and for some users, it may be more practical to simply
+checkout a new working copy.</p>
+
+<p><strong>Note:</strong> Subversion 1.11 cannot upgrade working copies that
+a 1.6 client would have refused to operate upon before an <tt>svn cleanup</tt>
+was run (with a 1.6 client). In other words, before upgrading to 1.8 or newer,
+a 1.6
+or older client must be used to run <tt>svn cleanup</tt> on all 1.6 or older
+working copies that require cleanup. Likewise, Subversion 1.11 cannot upgrade
+corrupt working copies. Unfixable problems can arise from missing or corrupt
+meta-data inside <tt>.svn</tt> directories. Such damage to the working copy
+is permanent, and cannot be fixed even if <tt>svn cleanup</tt> is run prior
+to the upgrade.</p>
+
+<p>If your working copy does not upgrade cleanly, please check out a new one.

+
+<p>Shelving (<a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SVN-3625">issue
+#3625</a>), first introduced in Subversion 1.10, is improved in 1.11 to
+handle more kinds of changes more robustly.</p>
+
+<div class="notice">
+ <p><span style="color: red"><b>WARNING:</b></span> The shelving feature is
+ designated "EXPERIMENTAL" in 1.11. It is being released in an early form

+
+<p>Shelving in 1.11 is incompatible with shelves created by 1.10. See
+<a href="#shelving-transition">the transition notes</a> on recovering 1.10
+shelves and differences in commands.</p>
+
+<p>The main improvements and changes are:</p>
+<ul>
+ <li>checkpointing support: a shelf stores multiple versions of a
+ change; shelving adds a new version to the named shelf; you can
+ unshelve an older version instead of the newest&mdash;see the
+ <a href="#checkpointing">checkpointing</a> feature</li>
+ <li>'binary' files (and property values) are fully supported</li>
+ <li>patch files are no longer used as the storage mechanism;
+ limitations and bugs due to patch file format are gone, such as
+ handling svn:mergeinfo properties, binary data, and end-of-line
+ characters</li>
+ <li>shelving and unshelving both warn and refuse to run if they detect
+ states that they cannot handle (e.g. copies or moves)</li>
+ <li>unshelving applies the changes to the WC using a mechanism similar
+ to merging, so that changes can be more robustly applied when the
+ WC has been modified (e.g. updated) since the shelf was saved</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>The kinds of change you can shelve are committable changes to files and
+properties, except the following kinds which are not yet supported:</p>
+<ul>
+ <li>copies and moves</li>
+ <li>creating and deleting directories</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>Shelving commands (see their help for details):</p>
+<ul>
+ <li><tt>svn x-shelf-diff</tt></li>
+ <li><tt>svn x-shelf-drop</tt></li>
+ <li><tt>svn x-shelf-list, x-shelves</tt></li>

+<h4>Improvements to the interactive conflict resolver
+ <a class="sectionlink" href="#conflict-resolver"
+ title="Link to this section">&para;</a>
+</h4>
+
+<p>The interactive conflict resolver now supports more conflict situations
+which involve moved files and directories. Specifically, many tree conflicts
+which report a "locally missing" item, as a result of an item having moved
+on the merge source branch, can now be resolved automatically.</p>
+
+<p>For example, when a file edit is cherry-picked from a branch on which
+the edited file has been renamed, the edit will now be applied to the file's
+location in the merge target branch, provided it has not been renamed
+on that branch as well. For details, see
+<a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SVN-4694">issue #4694</a>,
+"Unresolvable tree conflict when cherrypicking a file-edit after file was
+moved on source branch".</p>
+
+<p>Several bugs have been fixed in the conflict resolver, including:
+<ul>
+<li><a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SVN-4744">Issue #4744</a>
+&quot;assertion failed (start_rev &gt; end_rev)&quot;</li>
+<li><a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SVN-4766">Issue #4766</a>
+&quot;resolver adds unrelated moves to move target list&quot;</li>
+<li>A problem where the resolver mistakenly
+<a href="https://svn.apache.org/r1839662">searched back through
+the entire history of the repository</a></li>
+</ul>
+</p>
+
+<p>Fixes for conflict resolver bugs found during the development of
+Subversion 1.11 have been backported to the
+<a href="1.10.html">Subversion 1.10</a> release series as well.</p>
