repository backups

Guys,

I'm in the process of setting up a backup system for my subversion
repositories. What I'm doing is
basically

\rm -rf /tmp/HotCopy/MyRepository
svnadmin hotcopy /SVNRepDir/MyRepository /tmp/HotCopy/MyRepository
rsync -avz /tmp/HotCopy/MyRepository remotehost:/backup

The problem is, every time I execute the backup, I loose the
effectivness of rsync since
the whole repository gets pushed over to the remotehost because the /tmp
directory has
been recreated. Is there an incremental hotcopy command which allows me
to do something
like this?

svnadmin hotcopy /SVNRepDir/MyRepository /tmp/HotCopy/MyRepository
svn commit -m "doing something to repository" changedfile.c
file:///SVNRepDir/MyRepository/Module
svnadmin hotcopy /SVNRepDir/MyRepository /tmp/HotCopy/MyRepository

The second hotcopy command complains that the directory already exists
and is non-empty....

Cheers. Steve.
