Yes, but I think having a dump file of your repository is more save for case of having a corrupted repository.
A dump can be done by:
svnadmin dump REPOSITORY_PATH > name_of_dump.dmp
Check out the complete help for dump:
dump: usage: svnadmin dump REPOS_PATH [-r LOWER[:UPPER]] [--incremental]
Dump the contents of filesystem to stdout in a 'dumpfile'
portable format, sending feedback to stderr. Dump revisions
LOWER rev through UPPER rev. If no revisions are given, dump all
revision trees. If only LOWER is given, dump that one revision tree.
If --incremental is passed, then the first revision dumped will be
a diff against the previous revision, instead of the usual fulltext.
Valid options:
-r [--revision] arg : specify revision number ARG (or X:Y range)
--incremental : dump incrementally
-q [--quiet] : no progress (only errors) to stderr
Regards,
Michael.

| The common way is to do a "svn dump" of your repository. Than you can
move the dump file to your backup server. To get a higher level of security you can also implement a post-commit script that dumps the incremental change after every commit. (See SVN book for details about post-commit and svn dump)

Okay, but a backup of the whole repository would also work?
(I guess)
What should be the syntax for this svn dump ?
I'm using subversion-1.0.0-51 (from SuSE 9.1)
Please give answer to the mailingslist.
Kind regards,
Paul
