OK to run verify and hotcopy at the same time?

[petermity <6t...@dea.spamcon.org>]

A root cron task kicks off an svnadmin verify of all of our
repos.

Independently, another root cron task some time later runs
svnadmin hotcopy on them.

As our projects grow, it's possible that the verification would
still be running when hotcopy occurs on the same repo at the same
time.  Is there any problem with that?

Since nobody replied, I tested this myself.  I made a copy of a
repo, and in one PuTTY session ran a script to do svnadmin
hotcopy repeatedly on the repo, and in another PuTTY session ran
another script to do svnadmin verify repeatedly on the same repo.

There seems to be no conflict - neither one ever failed, with
tens of thousands of hotcopies and dozens of verifications.
