John,
thanks once more for the input. At second glance I got some rsync
packages that might not be too difficult to set up. Unfortunately our
hoster does not allow running programs and as far as I have found
out yet they do not offer rsync as a service on their own, but I am
still confirming this with a technician. It is obvious that rsync draws
a good deal of speed from running on both machines. But as it
seems I have to wait and hope that SVN some day updates
checksums if timestamps have changed. And it is good to know
that SVN at least reads my email - for how else it should have
known and started corruption on the other repos just after posting?

Best regards
