Unlike 'svnadmin dump', hotcopy will happily back up a corrupt revision and not tell you. It's really just a clever filesystem backup with a very careful time ordering of certain key files in case there is a transaction in progress when it runs. Having been bitten by this myself[*], we now run svnadmin out of cron every night before we run our hotcopy. We also keep a week's worth of hotcopies, and I check my cron emails every morning. [*] fsfsverify.py is your friend
OK, thanks: I'll update our backup script! -- [neil@fnx ~]# rm -f .signature [neil@fnx ~]# ls -l .signature ls: .signature: No such file or directory [neil@fnx ~]# exit
