A dump file is independent of the repository type. You can dump a BDB
repository and load it into a new FSFS repository for example. Any
new repository you "svnadmin create" with Subversion 1.2 or later is
FSFS by default. So you either created the new repository with
Subversion 1.1 or earlier, or you specifically asked for it to be a
BDB repository by typing "svnadmin create --fs-type bdb"
P.S: Use Reply All so your reply goes to the list too, not just to me.
