RE: newbie: how to simple windows backup

If you get Perl installed which is relatively easy on a Perl box, you might
want to peek at the backup Perl code here:

It saves space by making daily incremental backups as well full weekly
backups.

matador,

Take a look at running a batch script with "svnadmin hotcopy <repopath>
<newrepopath>" as a simple alternative.

Subject: newbie: how to simple windows backup

regular apache/svn setup on windows

i dont have python installed on my svn win2k box & i dont have a lot of
time to mess with this, so....

i just need a simple backup solution so ithought that the following would
work:

just copy the entire repository once a day/week/etc to a backup location.
would a restore to an eariler point just be as simple as replacing the
contents of the production repository with one of the copies from the
backup location?

thx
