So long as we do things in a reasonable order it will probably be possible to restart the incremental hotcopy even if a previous incremental was interrupted and left an invalid repository. rsync on a live repository is becoming less reliable: it doesn't handle exclusive file locks (issue 3750) or 1.7 packed revprops. -- Philip
