SVN repository backup
A quick shell script to make an atomic copy of a Subversion repository using svn hotcopy:
#!/bin/bash
SVNDIR=/home/svn/
BACKUPDIR=/tmp/svn.`date +%Y-%m-%d`/
BACKUPFILE=/tmp/svn.`date +%Y-%m-%d`.tgz
mkdir $BACKUPDIR
svnadmin hotcopy $SVNDIR $BACKUPDIR
tar -C $BACKUPDIR -czf $BACKUPFILE .
scp $BACKUPFILE someuser@somewhere.example.com:svnbackup/ \
&& rm $BACKUPFILE && rm -rf $BACKUPDIRPosted at 4:32 AM |Comments (0)
