I don't know if we have any generic notes about this. I might have
put something in the book about it.

But it's easy:

1. Backdate your subversion to sometime before the schema changed.
   You could also just grab the 0.27 tarball and build it,
   --disable-shared.

2. Rename the old repos: 'mv repos old-repos'

3. Using the old(er) code, run 'svnadmin dump old-repos > dumpfile'.

4. Using the new code, run 'svnadmin create repos', then 'svnadmin
   load repos < dumpfile'.

5. Move any hook scripts or whatever from the old repos to the new
   one.
