SVN official backup hot-backup.py highly recommended

CentOS 6.7 The default installation of Python is 2.6.6, you can first look at the Python version of your operating system, python-v;

Hot-backup.py is based on Python2 write, Python3 grammar Some places are different, so in Python3 not necessarily can run, I did not test, the students can test, the current Linux OS default installation of the Python version is 2

SOURCE Analysis:

Print ("Backing Up repository to '" + Backup_subdir + "' ...")
Err_code = Subprocess.call ([Svnadmin, "Hotcopy", Repo_dir,
Backup_subdir, "--clean-logs"])
If Err_code! = 0:
Sys.stderr.write ("Unable to backup the repository.\n")
Sys.stderr.flush ()
Sys.exit (Err_code)
Else
Print ("Done.")
The script core is the use of Svnadmin Hotcopy is a full-scale backup, including the library's hook scripts, configuration files, etc.;

The advantage is that the backup process is fast and disaster recovery is fast, and if the SVN service is already set up on the backup machine and does not even need to be restored, simply configure it to switch to the backup repository.

The disadvantage is: more expensive hard disk, need to have large hard disk support. Now who cares about capacity AH ~ ~ ~ Haha, a few servers do not use space to find an open source Distributed file system to do a storage pool, enough of it.

Restore: Restore

Unpack the latest backup files first
#svnadmin hotcopy/usr/local/data/backup/The extracted backup file/usr/local/data/svn/repos/ui/

About the SVN migration, and the need to move out multiple repositories by directory keyword for a total library, and to restart the commit version of the requirement you can contact me and leave me a message.
