[BOOK] PDF Formatting Mistakes

There is a minor formatting problem with the current PDF version of "The
Book" I'd

like to bring to your attention. The items of note are in red below. This
example from page

66 is the first I noticed:

Another great feature of Berkeley DB is hot backups-the ability to backup
the database environment

without taking it "offline". We'll discuss how to backup your repository in
the section called Reposi-

"tory Backup", but the benefits of being able to make fully functional
copies of your repositories without

any downtime should be obvious.

Berkeley DB is also a very reliable database system. Subversion uses
Berkeley DB's logging facilities,

which means that the database first writes to on-disk logfiles a description
of any modifications it is

about to make, and then makes the modification itself. This is to ensure
that if anything goes wrong, the

database system can back up to a previous checkpoint-a location in the
logfiles known not to be corrupt-

and replay transactions until the data is restored to a usable state. See
the section called Manag-

"ing Disk Space" for more about Berkeley DB logfiles.

It looks like when an "xref linkend" that falls across lines was subjected
to word breaks, the

quote mark ended up in the wrong spot.

The XML looks just fine for the two bad places...

We'll discuss how to backup your repository in <xref
linkend="svn-ch-5-sect-3.6"/>, but

the benefits of being able to make fully functional copies of your
repositories without any

downtime should be obvious.

and

See <xref linkend="svn-ch-5-sect-3.3"/> for more about Berkeley DB
logfiles.</para>
