Yes, this looks like what I need. Thanks! Will read up on this tonight. So basically, talked to the manglers some more, and this is the requirement: 1. dump the repo 2. give them the repo 3. they need to load it to a machine, not my responsibility 4. they need to use their own UI (Probably Tortoise) 5. they look for whatever they want. So in step 1, the requirement is: dump the repo from beginning of time til June of 2015. So probably after reading up on that url above and testing it out a few times, this is probably exactly what we need. Then they will have a june2015.dmp file and I'm in the clear. Luckily for me, one of my daily backups is a dump file every night to a VM. So to make sure the dump files work, I just do svn://backup_vm_ip address. -- eric
