Question about anti-virus software and SVN

Hi,

We are using TortoiseSVN V1.4.4, and we are not having any issues. So
this question is a "what if" question concerning how anti-virus software
works with SVN.

Q - What will happen to the integrity of the SVN repository if the
following happens, and we need to revert to a previous version of a
file:

Scenario 1 - A desktop machine has an infected file, the anti-virus
software deletes or quarantines the file, and the folder is "committed"
to SVN?

Scenario 2 - the server which holds the SVN repository, has an infected
file, the anti-virus software deletes or quarantines the file, and a
desktop user trys to recover the file to their desktop?

Q - So, is our virus software (AVG in this case), a potential
hazard/risk to the operation of SVN and the integrity of our data? Is
there something we can do within our software, or is their an alternate
Anti-virus software that you recommend?

Thanks

Lee
