Hello All,
I have Subversion 1.3.0 up and running on Win XP and Apache 2.
Working copy created.
For tutorial purposes, I dumped the revision 1 repository :
C:\>svnadmin dump C:\svnRepository\silverdarkroom >
c:\SVNDumpFiles\Base-repos-dumpfile-27March2006
then restored ( svn load ) the dump file to a new SVN repository:
C:\>svnadmin load C:\svnRepositoryRestored\silverdarkroom <
C:\SVNDumpFiles\Base-repos-dumpfile-27March2006
At this point, had this been an actual emergency, I'm not sure how
to proceed...
Do I copy c:\...Restored\silverdarkroom over the same
location as my live ( now presumably corrupt ) repository.
If so, I presume I need to clean it out first...
or:
Do I leave it alone and point Apache at a the restored
path,
or:
Do I copy c:\...restored\silverdarkroom to a new dir,
then point Apache to the new path...
What are best practices for dump / load ?
How often do SVN Admins dump the repository ?
Thanks in Advance.
