Sorry to re-raise this issue on the mailing list, but our repository is
fairly crippled until I get some sort of a solution to the issue. Has anyone
got any ideas on what would cause a checksum mismatch and more importantly
how to recover a repository from one? I really want to get back to using
subversion, but can't until I get an explanation for this error. Please
help.

Subject: RE: Broken repository. svnadmin verify and dump report a checksum
mismatch.
All the broken revisions were made by one person. But, that same person has
made about 30% of all revisions. Also, the one working revision that sits in
the middle of the four broken ones (#41) was made by that same user. So it
is unlikely that it is a user issue.
The SVN client is TortoiseSVN 1.2.4484 (we use the special compile with the
_SVN folder hack for VS.Net web projects). There are only two developers. We
both use this client and so far, I know we have never accessed the
repository concurrently.
The first broken revision (#39) IS significantly larger than the
predecessors, but isn't the largest. It contains a commit of a very large
zip file. A complete directory listing of all the files in the db/revs
folder is as follows. I have added an asterisk to the right of each of the
four broken revisions.
Finally, some extra notes. I can retrieve the entire repository log without
any problems. I can svnadmin dump --incremental all revisions except the
four broken one and have used the dumped revision details to reload the good
revisions into a fresh repository. For now, this is a barely acceptable
workaround. A full recovery of the entire repository would obviously be more
desirable if possible. Do you have any ideas of possible causes?
Thanks,
John
