Hi Eric,
Thank you very much for your advice. I will setup svn 1.9.7 on centos7 then 
follow your instruction to migrate the existing svn 1.6.11 to the new server.

Many thanks again!

Hello,
Can you please tell me where I can get Subversion version 1.6.11 (r934486) 
package? I need to setup a 1.6.11 server on centos7, then migrate our current 
svn 1.6.11 on centos5.6 to the 1.6.11 server on centos7. Then upgrade the svn 
1.6.11 server on centos7 to the current version (1.9.7).

The recommended upgrade path would probably be different than what you 
describe. Do an svnadmin dump on your current server, and import on your new 
server, with whatever version of Subversion you're running there. If you cannot 
take any down time, do the dump & load, then set up svnsync to catch up and 
keep the two servers in sync. When you're ready to switch over, you stop new 
commits to the existing server, make sure the sync operations finish, then 
deactivate the syncing and turn your new server liver. Maybe a minute of total 
down time.


I am not sure if I can install svn 1.9.7 on centos7 and migrate my svn 1.6.1 
directly to the 1.9.7 on centos7.

I believe so, if you follow the approach I outlined above. Caveat - I don't run 
CentOS.

Eric.


Any advice will be highly appreciated and thank you in advance!
