No, the dumpfile format didn't change.  The repository *database
schema* changed.  It's the fact that we have an *invariant* dumpfile
format that allows us to migrate data from one database schema to
another!

Also, Paul: can you add (to both the CHANGES file and the announcement
mail) a reference to the repository_upgrade_HOWTO document, which
explains how to migrate repository data?

The URL is here, right into svn's own HEAD tree:

  http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/notes/repos_upgrade_HOWTO

Thanks!

Doh!  How did I miss that.  I could've sworn I saw that somewhere.

Ahh, I think I mis-interpreted:
  rev 6741:  mbk | 2003-08-15 09:05:16 -0400 (Fri, 15 Aug 2003) | 5 lines

  Update dumpfile format specification to reflect version-2 changes.

sorry about that.  I'll fix it.

	It may look like I'm just sitting here doing nothing,
   but I'm really actively waiting for all my problems to go away.

	 If you're not having fun, you're not doing it right!
