Can/Should I run svnadmin pack on a mirrored repository

We're mirroring a 1.6 repo using svnsync. We run svnadmin pack once a week on the master repo, but I'm wondering if we can or should also run it on the mirrored repository. From what I understand of SVN internals, the filesystem changes svnadmin pack makes would not be mirrored (which makes sense I guess). Can someone confirm if I can/sh...

I have a project for which I am ready to create a branch, which will be branch 1.0.x for all of the 1.0.x changes. I also want to have a set of tags to correspond to changes to that branch, i.e. 1.0.1, 1.0.2, etc. When I first create this 1.0.x branch, I am also creating a tag named 1.0. At this point, the branch and the tag have the sam...

Is there a good practice to make a branch of a subdirectory of "trunk" ?

Locking a SubVersion branch in the days before a release

In the days before a release we'd like to be able to prevent developers from committing files to the SubVersion branch, unless a team leader has reviewed and approved the changes (in which case they would make a temporary change to allow this). Previously we used ClearCase, in which this was relatively easy to do. Since the svn:lock co...
