What is the maximum size for svnadmin dump cmd can create


I have svn repository which is larger than 10 GB in size. The svn running is SVN 1.6 on the server.I have migrate to SVN 1.9 using dump and load. Has anyone created the dumpfile for repository size more than 10 GB. If SVNADMIN dump/load does not support very big repositories, I have to find alternative approach like dumping based on revisions. I believe there should be some proven approach for larger repositories in svn.


Solution

  • There is no limit for dumpfile.

    Also note that you can use pipe for dump/load procedure:

    svnadmin dump src-repo | svnadmin load dest-repo
