Please visit http://subversion.tigris.org to download the latest subversion client before continuing.
You can also get the "prebacked" version used at http://src.chromium.org/svn/trunk/tools/third_party/ The thing that is missing now is to stop the message from happening you need to create depot_tools\svn.bat. Feel free to make it call anything. The default one is in depot_tools\bootstrap\win\svn.new.bat. Just copy it over to depot_tools\svn.bat. I'll try to make more resilient in the coming days.
