With the pre-release (!) of 1.7 installed on the unstable build hosts
your local repo will not work without an upgrade or a new checkout.
Expect the upgrade to take an enormous amount of time, at least 12
hours. I don't remember the complete checkout taking more than about 3
hours so I would recommend that.
