Hi Tobias,
It is nice to know that I'm not the only one that has been living the same
situation. Here's the answer to your question.
- Are you sure that the backup was complete?
I think so, because of the size of the svn-repository folder which
was 873meg, after the restore the size is the same. I think my error I did
not use SVNAdmin hotcopy <SVN-Repository Folder>, to do a backup, I have
used the explorer backup
- Are you sure that the restore of the backup was fully done?
I'm pretty sure, because of the size.
- What SVN server do you use?
I have used Tortoise SVN as a server-based repo to access the folder
from the desktop to the laptop SVN-Repository folder,
Thank you Tobias for your help,
Robert
