Surely FSFS is more robust but i would like to use the database
repository in order to query it for retrieving log messages.
I mean that rhe source code in inside the FSFS repository and
periodically we esport from FSFS and import in DB, so
we could use SQL to query tables containing log messages about file and
directory versioned (instead of svn log).
But what version of Barkley DB can i use. The last version 5 is ok or i
must use lower version? Thanks
