Hi SVN users,

We are planning to set up a write through proxy.The Master SVN version is
1.8.8 and it is on revision r627560  currently. My question before
proceeding this setup is "Is there a necessity to fix the Master SVN
repository since we have tons of svn loads which have by passed the svn
prop validation.Will the svnsync complete without any errors? We have even
tried to fix the repository, but the fix fails due to the below errors,

*"svnadmin: E185001: Svndiff contains a too-large window*

 *svnadmin: E140001: zlib (uncompress): corrupt data: Decompression of
svndiff data failed"*


Please let me know if these errors occur while svnsync.

Are there any pre-requisites which needs to be checked before going forward?

Appreciate help in this regard.

Thanks in advance.

Yes, if you intend the revisions to go through commits and hence revision 
property validation. Alternatively, use dumps or hotcopies and svnsync init 
with --allow-non-empty.

Check your slave versions are compatible.

If the question was if these messages are expected for a good setup: no.

Revision properties of past revisions that pass validation, or a slave creation 
bypassing same.
