Use 'svn checkout' to get new working copies after upgrading. Note that working copies are only used by the Subversion client. A 1.9 server is fully backwards compatible to repositories created by any version of Subversion. If you are unsure about the differences between working copies and repositories, please read this page: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.basic.version-control-basics.html
