Re: Please help me

Did you backup the root repository folder? Did you use the "svn
hotcopy" command?

If you backed up the repository root (that is grabbing the conf, dav,
db, hooks, locks) directory, you should be able to download this
directory onto a machine with a similar hardware architecture and OS
as your previous system, and use that as your repository. It should
contain all the information and revisions since the backup.

The dump is nice because it is OS and architecture neutral, so if your
new machine is a different OS or architecture type, you can restore
from the dump.

However, that doesn't mean that your old repository directory backup
is useless. Even if you are planning on placing it on a new system,
you can always put the repository backup on a clone of your older
system, and then do a dump from that. Then, use that dump to restore
the repository on your new system.
