See http://subversion.apache.org/faq.html#stuck-bdb-repos You could convert your repository to FSFS to avoid this problem. This is done by telling everyone to stop committing, and then dumping the repository: svnadmin dump oldrepos > oldrepos.dump ... creating a new repository with FSFS backend (FSFS is default in current releases of Subversion): svnadmin create --fs-type=fsfs mynewrepository ... and then loading the dump file into the new repository: svnadmin load mynewrepository < oldrepos.dump ... and replacing the old repository with the new one. You may also want to set the new repository's UUID to the UUID of the old one: svnadmin setuuid mynewrepository `cat oldrepos/db/uuid` This will keep existing working copies working. Stefan
