Yes, the Postgresql port uses /var/postgresql. I tried to find a best practice for the subversion directory. Most volks seemed to use /var/svn. > Would you be able to submit a diff to the port which implements > this idea? Unfortunately, I would not be able to as of now. But sometime in future, I do hope to contribute. I am sorry for this. While trying to determine the best practices, I encountered a few ideas. Would it be possible for volks to please share their thoughts on them: 1) Is it a good idea to make a separate disklabel partition /var/svn? 2) If yes, would rw,nodev,nosuid,softdep,sync be appropriate fstab options to mount /var/svn? 3) What is a good svn repository backup routine? Any gotchas that should be kept in mind? Regards, ab ---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|---------|--
