Re: Backup and maintenance

I believe the difference is that with the hotcopy script you can just copy the repo and start using it.. With svnadmin dump you would need to reload the dump into a new repo which can take a long time for large repositories.

   I know the docs say that the hot-copy script should be used. But what
problems am I looking at if I run "svnadmin dump /path/to/repository"
and piping it through bzip2 in my daily maintenance?
