I'm trying to make a local backup of a remote Subversion repo. I've tried this so many times that I wrote this brain-dead Windows batch file:
============ begin ============ if %1x == x goto :EOF set BACKUP_REPO=%1 set SOURCE_REPO=<url> svnadmin create %BACKUP_REPO% echo exit 0 > %BACKUP_REPO%\hooks\pre-revprop-change.bat svnsync init file:///%BACKUP_REPO% %SOURCE_REPO% svnsync sync file:///%BACKUP_REPO% ============ end ============ The operation proceeds without problems until it gets to revision 71, at which point it fails with the error "svnsync: E175002: REPORT request on '/<ROOT>/!svn/rev/71' failed". I've looked at all the related answers I could find, but none of them address this specific problem. This is what an (edited) attempt looks like: ============ begin ============ PS E:\svn> .\create_backup.bat E:\svn\backuprepo3 E:\svn>if E:\svn\backuprepo3x == x goto :EOF E:\svn>set BACKUP_REPO=E:\svn\backuprepo3 E:\svn>set SOURCE_REPO=<url> E:\svn>svnadmin create E:\svn\backuprepo3 E:\svn>echo exit 0 1>E:\svn\backuprepo3\hooks\pre-revprop-change.bat E:\svn>svnsync init file:///E:\svn\backuprepo3 <url> Copied properties for revision 0. E:\svn>svnsync sync file:///E:\svn\backuprepo3 Committed revision 1. Copied properties for revision 1. Committed revision 2. Copied properties for revision 2. Committed revision 3. Copied properties for revision 3. Transmitting file data ............................................................................ ............................................................................ ....................... <snip> Committed revision 68. Copied properties for revision 68. Committed revision 69. Copied properties for revision 69. Transmitting file data ............... Committed revision 70. Copied properties for revision 70. svnsync: E175002: REPORT request on '/<root>/!svn/rev/71' failed PS E:\svn> ============ end ============ I'd be okay with losing the first 70 revisions, but I have no idea how to get past this point. The master is on a CollabNet CloudForge account, so I have no visibility into the server side - not even SVN version. I can view revs 69 through 72 using the repo browser without detecting any problems. The client is TortoiseSVN (command line utilities): PS E:\svn> svnsync --version svnsync, version 1.11.0 (r1845130) compiled Oct 30 2018, 21:50:05 on x86-microsoft-windows How do I go about analyzing this problem? Are there diagnostic tools? Log files? Guys who just know the answer? Thanks, -Nick
