We are using SVN 1.7 and running in Solaris 10. Recently we've introduced incremental backup and the dump files will be compressed after the dump operation.
The following are the commands that are used, svnadmin dump -q --incremental -r0:30700 /path/to/repos > /path/to/dmp gzip -1 /path/to/dump But the issue here is the .gz file is double the size of dump file. Means, the dump file size is 500MB whereas the .gz file is of 850 MB size. I tried gzip -9 as well but that doesnt solve the purpose either as it compresses to an 650 MB file. Can anyone tell me what could be the issue here? Thanks, Sakthi
