How do I get the top revision number for a branch from SVN repository?

Question

I'm using this code snippet for finding top revision number from svn but my page is not responding. It keeps on searching only

using (SvnClient client = new SvnClient())
{
    SvnInfoEventArgs info;
    Uri repos = new Uri("svn://india01/repository/branches/mybranch1");
    client.GetInfo(repos, out info);
    lblMsg.Visible = true;
    lblMsg.Text = (string.Format("The last revision of {0} is {1}", 
           repos, info.Revision));
}

I want to fetch the top revision number from the mybranch1 which is in the svn repository at svn://india01/repository/branches/mybranch1.

Have you tried using http:// instead of the svn:// protocol? — stuartd, Nov 16 '12 at 12:50
but after running web page it's looking for a file as below f:\qqn\sharpsvn-dist\src\sharpsvn\svnclientargs.cpp — Piyush, Nov 16 '12 at 14:34
after changing the protocol from SVN:// to Http:// showing below error `http://india01/repository/branches/mybranch1': could not connect to server `http://india01/` — Piyush, Nov 16 '12 at 14:38

here we need to add the SharpSvn Api dll reference into c# project. link for SharpSvn package download and then follow the below link for example code for getting top revision number

SvnInfoEventArgs statuses;
SvnClient client = new SvnClient();
client.Authentication.Clear();//clear a previous authentication
client.Authentication.DefaultCredentials = 
    new System.Net.NetworkCredential("usr", "pass");
client.GetInfo("svn://india00/Repo/branches/xyz", out statuses);
int LastRevision = (int)statuses.LastChangeRevision;`

add references as

using SharpSvn;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Collections.ObjectModel;`
