It almost perfectly paralleled BDB's db_archive command. So, yes, I think it
made a *lot* of sense in that respect. 'lsdblogs' is confusing. (db_archive
takes an argument to print out *all* logs, so why is it so difficult to do the
same? Why must we have renamed it?)

The one argument that I'd have for keeping 'archive'/'recover' is that I'm
betting we're having lots of people whose 'db_recover' in their PATH isn't the
same as the BDB library they built SVN with. So, keeping it within svnadmin
makes some sense because I'm betting people have run recover against their
repository with different BDB builds. And, we're fairly sure that will cause
repository corruption. -- justin
