I'm using svn 1.8.4 on RHEL 6.3 (we're in the process of trying to upgrade from svn 1.6 to 1.8). However, the svnadmin hotcopy command doesn't appear to be working correctly with the repositories I've copied over from our 1.6 server - most of the db/revprop directories are missing. See output below. It works OK if I upgrade the repository first. Am I missing something obvious?
