Folks, How do people backup their subversion repositories?
I have a FSFS SVN repository that I'm looking to backup. I'd like to follow my usual routine of a couple of fulls a month and daily incrementals. I have read that this is possible as the filesystem laybe allows increamental backups to be sensibly taken. I have heard a few strategies: 1) JFDI (Just Do It): The svn repos can just be backed up nornally while online without any major damange 2) SVNhotbackup: Use the svnhotbackup util to take a full 3) Stop SVN, rsync to a staging area and backup the staging area I understand that 1 can be easy but occasionally messy, 2 destroys all hope of taking increamental backups and 3 is a bit of a pita to setup. What are people using for SVN backups and what do people recommend? Mike. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
