Hi everybody, our sysdamins raised a question whether 'svnadmin dump' is safe to run on a live repo (served via apache). The man page does not list a requirement to stop other operations before dumping, but neither does it go into any detail what happens if new revisions are created while the dump is running. (Nor does the backup section in the book.)
So: is it safe to run 'svnadmin dump' on an operational repo, and will it dump up to the last revision at the time of its start or its termination? Andreas -- "Totally trivial. Famous last words." From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@*.org> Date: Fri, 22 Jan 2010 07:29:21 -0800
