I tend to use svnadmin dump for my daily backups. (some time ago, I ran into compatibility issues with hotcopy when trying to restore on a different OS and it kind of frightened me.) What would make you prefer to use hotcopy rather than dump? Performance? > (We took advantage of repository sharding in 1.6, which is why we did a > svn dump/load method.

Or would you consider ext3 as good enough? _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
