Is that not something what a shell is usually happy to do for you in a loop? Anyway, as you may have already read from the documentation, svnsync can be initialized on non-empty destination repositories which represent a past state of the on-disk data. One would normally use the hotcopy operation to get such a consistent copy. However, if you can stop commits for a bit this can be done using file system level tools such a cp/tar/rsync/lvm, some of which can preserve permissions. This has the added benefit of bypassing the initial sync time, which can be significant for repositories of non-trivial size. Andreas
