Technically, you only need to run 'svnadmin hotcopy repos' to make a
complete backup of your repository.

The 'hot-backup.py' is just a script that calls 'svnadmin hotcopy'; the
only thing it adds is some extra features to keep N full backups lying
around at any given time. It lives in the /trunk/tools/backup/
directory of svn's own repository. When you run ./configure, it
converts hot-backup.py.in to hot-backup.py.
