/tmp/dump.tmp generated by subversion/libsvn_repos/dump.c:store_delta

[Mark K <ma...@mitsein.net>]

I had an issue with the weekly cronjob that I have for dumping the
repositories at my site.  I got this error:
svnadmin: Can't write to file '/tmp/dump.tmp': No space left on device

Searching the code I found that this is the tmpfile that store_delta
opens in the course of doing a dump.  Is there any way to choose a
different location for the stream?

Yes, I can size my /tmp bigger, but I'd like to be able to choose
another place to send the temp stream where I know I have plenty of
room.

We don't have a run-time option for it, as far as I know, but you can
set the TMP environment variable to point to a different location I
think.

By the way, this sort of question should be asked on users@, not dev@.

Best,
