RE: Restoring from an incremental dump?

Just a question here, if you skip revisions in the load, will the revision numbers be adjusted, or will they preserve the original revision numbers with padded zero revisions maybe?

Assuming you have several incremental dump files, going back to the beginning of the repository's creation, sure you can create a new repository from it:

svnadmin create newrepo
svnadmin load newrepo < dumpfile1
svnadmin load newrepo < dumpfile2
svnadmin load newrepo < dumpfile3
svnadmin load newrepo < dumpfile4
etc.

where dumpfile1 is the one that begins at revision 0, dumpfile2 begins at or after where dumpfile1 left off, etc.
