Description host 2013-06-23 09:48:43 UTC

In the SVN preferences when I select JavaHL 1.8 as SVN client library and then click on the Apply button then the selection for the preferred client flips back directly to SvnKit.

Only when I investigate the messages.og now, I can see the following INFO (not even warning):

INFO [org.netbeans.libs.svnclientadapter]: Javahl client adapter is not available
Incompatible JavaHL library loaded.  Subversion 1.7.x required.
INFO [org.netbeans.modules.subversion.client.SvnClientFactory]: JavaHL not available. Falling back on SvnKit.
INFO [org.netbeans.modules.subversion.client.SvnClientFactory]: svnClientAdapter running on svnkit

So it would be great to have this as a warning message dialog/window popping up when trying to select such an incompatible library in the preferences (as well as mark this as WARN and not INFO in the logging).
