Upgrading SVN - Do you need to upgrade the repository or just the working copies?

I'm using Tortoise SVN and I just upgraded from V1.6.8 to 1.8.1 and I ran a svn upgrade on my working copy; however I'm not sure if I need to run any upgrades on the repository itself!?

I read in another SO post that you didn't need to, but that was talking about V1.7, so I wasn't sure it differed between versions or you never need to make upgrades to your repository?

You do not need to upgrade the repository unless you need a new feature that is not available with the older server version (or repository version if using file protocol).

You can find a list of client/server/repository version requirements from the Apache Subersion site.
