  1. Edit the SystemVersion.plist file to change your Mac OS X version from 10.7 to 10.6:
    sudo vi /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist
  2. Replace each occurrence of 10.7 with 10.6
  3. Save the file
  4. Install Universal Subversion 1.6.17 Binaries for Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6) from http://www.collab.net/downloads/community/
