How can I find the version number for my SVN server software, using TortoiseSVN?

I'm using TortoiseSVN 1.6.8, and suspect I may be having a version incompatibility with my server.

How can I discover the version of SVN running on the server?

Preferably from Tortoise, but failing that, from the SVN command line.

Assuming that your SVN repository is getting accessed as an HTTP URL, say http://www.server.com/mysvnrepos/, you should be able to access the URL from your web browser.

From Windows Explorer, try File -> TortoiseSVN -> Repo Browser. Copy the URL of the repository and paste into your browser. It may return a source revision list, along with a footer at the bottom of the web page that reads "Powered by Subversion x.x.x."
