As revison property svn:date can be set to arbitrary date, there is no guarranty that timestamp is monotonically increasing by revision number, and svnadmin dump dumps in order of revision number.
Here is a script to make a small example repo. [[[ #!/bin/sh if [ -e testrepo -o -e wc ]; then echo testrepo or wc exists exit 1 fi svnadmin create testrepo cat > testrepo/hooks/pre-revprop-change <<EOF #!/bin/sh exit 0 EOF chmod +x testrepo/hooks/pre-revprop-change svn checkout file://`pwd`/testrepo wc touch wc/foo.txt svn add wc/foo.txt svn commit -m 'initial commit' wc echo foo >> wc/foo.txt svn commit -m 'secondary commit' wc svn propset --revprop -r 2 svn:date '1970-01-01T00:00:00.0Z' wc svnadmin dump testrepo ]]] This can be also occured if we use some tools to import commits including svnadmin itself.
