I keep hitting the memory issues in svndumpfilter2 (someone checked in 4Gb of binaries into my subversion...) and it is just crashing on that particular commit.
svnadmin dump repo/ | python svndumpfilter2 repo/ keep/this/path > myrepo.dump
It crashes each time
So I tried svndumpfilter3, latest copy from the git repo When I looked at the latest copy of svndumpfilter3 - it is looking for an environment variable "MODULE".
I cant find this documented, and when I set it, the dump doesnt seem to work.
Has anyone got an updated guide on svndumpfilter3?
Use the zerofilefix branch from https://github.com/bmwiedemann/svndumpfilter3.git - it worked for me.
The zerofilefix branch does not contain the module environment variable code. That code is a recent addition and seems to be a local environment variable for the author. I could not find any references to it in python or subversion documentation either.
