And just as with a backup, you'll need to restore the *access control* you
had before, which is usually not stored within the SVN
directories themselves. SSH public keys for svn+ssh, daemon configurations
for svnserve, Apache configs for HTTPS, and file ownership would need to be
set up. These are the same factors that need to be preserved, usually out
of band, for a backup or remote svnsync based mirror.
