svn-backup-dumps.py [Re: svnbackup.py]
Hello
svn-backup-dumps.py is a very useful script.
I have two suggestions for it.
1. If we runs it without arguments, it shows not-user-friently
error message. I think it must show a help message.
2. If we runs it with non-existing directory
as <dumpdir>, it shows not-user-friently error message too.
I think it must create dumpdir automatically or show the
message that you must create dumpdir in advance.
Thank you for your useful script.
Masaru

Thank you for your suggestions.
I implemented error reporting in r19841.
If you find more cases where it outputs a trace instead of an error
message please report them.
