Hi All,

I just wanted to ask the experts if the following is a safe idea or a
little risky -

I am currently running svn 1.3.2 for my project. The repository is the
FSFS type.

Everything runs on Linux.

If I were simple to change the svn install path to change from the 1.3.2
install to the 1.4.7 install,

And re-start svnserve, Would this be enough to 'upgrade' everyone
immediately?

I would only do this when the repository is not being accessed. Do you
forsee any issues with doing this,

Or is the recommended method to dump and reload the full repository?

Also, is FSFS the best DB to use?

Cheers

John
