what we do here is using post-commit hook scripts on the server to dump
the commit data to a queue folder and transfer these files periodically
(every 5 mins) to our backup system. Additionally, all changed repos are
dumped nightly. Thus, we have near realtime recovery possibility
whenever desaster strikes (which it never did in over 10 years now,
probably because of our backup/recovery strategy ;-)).

Best regards,
