Upgrade from 1.3.2 to 1.5

Hi, this is the first time I have to upgrade our Subversion Server

When I read the 1.5 Releases Notes, I found this:

"There is *no need* to dump and reload your repositories. Subversion 1.5 can
read repositories created by earlier versions. To upgrade an existing
installation, just install the newest libraries and binaries on top of the
older ones."

I didn't found any paper or faq that explains the process of upgrade the
server. I would like to know if exists any documentation, or if anybody can
tell me whats files I have to copy to upgrade the Server.

Really Thanks

Then just compile and install the new version. It will overwrite the  
files from the old version.

Hi Andy, I'm running svn under RedHat, but we didn't use the RPMs, we
compiled from source.

So, I don't understand what I have to do. Do I have to compile the new
version or do I have to overwrite some libraries ?
Sorry if I asking newbies questions ..

Thanks

That's it right there. You can just install the new release over top
of the current version you have installed (if you're using a platform
that has a package management system like most Linux distributions,
and you previously installed from a package, use the corresponding
package for 1.5, if one exists). Then optionally run svnadmin upgrade
(see http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.ref.svnadmin.c.upgrade.html
)
