Synopsis

svnadmin hotcopy old_repos_path new_repos_path

This subcommand makes a full hot backup of your repository, including all hooks, configuration files, and, of course, database files. If you pass the --clean-logs option, svnadmin performs a hotcopy of your repository, and then removes unused Berkeley DB logs from the original repository. You can run this command at any time and make a safe copy of the repository, regardless of whether other processes are using the repository.

Option

--clean-logs
