Hi,
I recently installed Visual SVN Server. I Put Repository on D:\Repositories and added some projects to the Repository via. Visual Studio 2008.
D:\Repositories\reponame seems to be a little bit to small in size when comparing to my projects altogether.
I need to make sure where the projects are stored in order to make a backup when reinstalling system on my server.
Any help with that would be appreciated.
Kind Regards PK
Subversion is pretty thrifty when it comes to file space use.
You should have a set of folders under your D:\Repositories\reponame like "conf", "dav", "db", "hooks" and "locks".
under "db" I have "revprops", "revs" and "transactions".
If you commit a new file to the repository you should get a new entry in "revs" folder.
I use svn mirroring for my backups - mirror all repos to a different SVN server on a daily basis.

IF you want to make sure you have your backups. Create a new repository, add some code and back up the folder structure.
Then delete it and restore it from backup.
SVN as Liam answered is very thrifty.
