If it is the backup you are concerned about, you should keep in mind that a
backup of a live repository is only correct if there are no live
transactions underway.

By writing a post-commit server hook, you can dump the just-committed
transaction to a file and place that on a share that is backed up. Benefits:
repository on local filesystem (== quick); completed transactions safely
stored on a managed file-area.

For example: my home linux box, running the repository has the following
line in the post-commit hook:

svnadmin dump $1 -r $2 --incremental --deltas >
/mnt/vault/repos/rivendell/revisions/$2

The /mnt/vault is my NAS.
