Repository snapshot

From: BUNBURY Myles <Myles.Bunbury_at_alcatel-lucent.com>

Periodically I run into the following scenario. What is the best (ie.
quickest/simplest/least error prone) way to accomplish this?

I am connected to two separate, independent SVN repositories, A & B.

I only have read access to repository A. I have read & write access to
Repository B.

Repository A has periodic commits as others make changes to the source.
I also make some changes to the code in repository A; however, these are
not committed to repository A since I don't have write access.

To backup & keep track of the changes I make to repository A, I
periodically commit my working copy of repository A to repository B.
Repository B therefore becomes a snapshot of repository A, reflecting
all the 'official' changes made to repository A plus my own custom
changes. I'm looking for a quick, simple, and human error resistant way
to accomplish this. Effectively, I want to tell SVN to make repository B
look like my working copy of repository A, and therefore have SVN
automatically do whatever adds/deletes/modifies are necessary to achieve
this.

Thoughts?
