Svnsync is the easy option. If you insist on doing a dump/load, then a) you can time a test run of a dump/load, and b) "svnadmin dump" allows you to specify revision ranges which means you can do incremental dumps. You can dump/load the bulk of the repo now and then during the migration, run another dump/load to catch any new commits. http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.reposadmin.maint.html#svn.reposadmin.maint.migrate The only caveat I can think of is if someone changes revision properties (e.g. the commit message) between the time of the initial dump and the migration. But you can track/prevent those with a hook script. (And is another reason why svnsync is preferred.)
