Possibly due to rep-sharing? Does db/revs/0/192 contain the number
"162" in ASCII decimal delimited by whitespace? You can check that with
the following command: grep -a "^text:" db/revs/0/192
Does 'svnadmin dump -r 162 >NUL' work ?
To answer your question: yes, most definitely a copy of the r192 (and/or
r162) rev file would allow to pinpoint the problem, however you might
not want to share those files on a public list as they may contain
sensitive data (versioned file contents).
