SVN Export/Import for Backup

Hi,

I have access to an SVN remote repository, where I have full access to a project I'm working on.

I know that it is possible to export an SVN database, and import somewhere else, or just make a backup of it.

My question is: since I have no idea where the repository is located (which server), and since I have full access to a specific project, can I export that project's database?

I always make changes and commits with correct and useful comments, and I would like to store all of them, together with the changes made, for future reference.

So is there any console I can connect with the SVN to issue those export commands?


Thanks.
 
svnsync is used for read-only mirrors - you can use it to re-create a remote repo, commit by commit.

If you have SSH access to the server, you can use svnadmin dump.
 
If you're working on Windows TortoiseSVN is a pretty complete Explorer integration for SVN that makes it easy to do most of these things.
