The main difference is that db4.2_recover will bypass the Subversion specific repository lock. When using 'svnadmin recover' Subversion's repository access layer will take an exclusive lock, which means that it waits for any shared locks to be released and it blocks any other lock requests. When using db4.2_recover it is up to the person doing the admin to ensure that no other repository access is taking place. -- Philip Martin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
