I don't know, I haven't look at a dump, but could it be a problem with
the line-endings ? The Linux created dump could have \n, and the Windows
version of load might expect \r\n ?

I've been using Subversion in a production environment for the past six
months or so. I believe I started with 0.24.0 or 0.25.0. Granted, I'm a
single developer, but I rarely use the file:// protocol, unless I'm doing
a reproduction recipe. Other than that, I use http://.

I use Subversion on Win2K SP3 machines, Apache 2.0.47 (and 48 lately). I
manage my Java projects with it, including vendor branches. I've been
merging changes inside and outside, with no problem.

I feel bad that you have problems with Subversion, because I like it so
much.

The best way to get things working for you is to provide more
information. For instance, you say that svnadmin load doesn't always
work on 0.33.1. Can you try 0.35.1 ? Alternatively, make the dump file
available, and someone (myself included) can try to import it and report
the results.
