RE: can i use "svnsync" as backup and restore mechanism?

Doesn't look like it, but plenty of other people have:

&defaultField=body&Search=Search&pluginName=messages&dsForumId=1065&dsNa

svnsync only copies the revisions (and revprops, except for historical
revprops that are changed, unless you use the flag to force syncing of a
specified revprop). Everything else is ignored, so you should copy your
entire server config.

Restore is a case of copying the db and revprops directories (or
pointing the client to the backup location).

Subject: can i use "svnsync" as backup and restore mechanism?

Hi,

I think I might have ask this question before... Can i use "svnsync" as
backup and restore mechanism? Can i restore the svn repository
completely with svnsync? I understand that I may not be able to restore
properties, hooks from svnsync, and what else?

Thank you.

A.
