RE: Subversion encountered a serious problem - during svn update

I see. I have no idea which revisions are problematic as a whole, I have
only run into specific cases, of which the only way I could get around and
continue working was to dump working copy and checkout HEAD again.

Only reason cygwin came into picture was to run the .sh file.

I have already run and the normal svnadmin verify which says everything is
fine... Still trying to pinpoint where and what the actual problem is. The
info in the first email was just to try to help. I have no idea what the
actual problem could be. I believe you said this was a more thorough
examination (may turn up things svnadmin verify will not). Can I command
line the fsfsverify.py to check every revision? If not, can I just write
something to do it for me iteratively... Obviously don't want to fix (-f)
anything yet as I don't know where the problem lies, but I can find no
explanation of the other flags available and I am python nub.

Thanks for bearing with me!

I'm not a windows expert so the script may fail on cygwin.
I've tested it on Linux and BSD.

But if you already know which revisions are problematic, you don't need
my script. Just run fsfsverify.py on the problematic revisions directly.
For instance: fsfsverify.py /path/to/repos/db/revs/0/42
