RE: Migrating from 32 to 64 bit

As far as subversion is concerned, as long as you get it installed, there is
nothing for you to think or care about.

Generally speaking, the 32->64 migration is easy for everything everywhere.
There may be some exceptions ... some package you need which isn't build
64bit or has difficulty building 64bit or something like that ... In
extremely rare circumstances, there may be some server daemon which doesn't
communicate properly with a 32bit counterpart ... but I've only seen that
once. (NIS master, 32/64 will work fine with a NIS client, 32/64. But you
can't mix a 32bit NIS master with a 64bit NIS slave, or vice-versa.)

Subject: Migrating from 32 to 64 bit

Hi

As described in the subject line. Do you have any experience in migrating
from 32 -> 64 bit ?

Is it possible to use the same filesystem with repositories in new system
(without dump&load)

Any good practices ?

Thanks
