You may attempt to load the dump using a current version of Apache Subversion not affected by the issue, but into a repository compatible with your production version, and then move/sync the FSFS. Specifically: svnadmin create --pre-1.5-compatible foorepo svnadmin --compatible-version 1.4.4 foorepo With kind regards, Andreas Stieger
