Oh -- and, if you are using a file server, then once again your easiest solution is probably FSFS instead of BDB, as already suggested elsewhere.


In fact, I'd strongly recommend against using BDB for Subversion repositories, for the following reasons:

1. Every time you want to upgrade BDB, you must first make sure your repositories have no logs sitting around. The BDB log file format changes in each version and isn't backward compatible.
2. BDB databases are in my experience not cross-endian compatible, so if you want to move from PPC to Intel, you're screwed.
3. BDB repositories have a nasty habit of getting permanently corrupted if someone checks in a change and then the OS is shut down improperly.
4. As someone else already mentioned, BDB doesn't work on network volumes.


Just use FSFS; I've never had any problems with it...
