I have a deltas (version 3) dump file, which is about 48GB in size.

I attempted the following on my machine

svnadmin create ./path/to/testRepo

svnadmin load ./path/to/testRepo < ./path/to/my.dump

The dump file that I'm working with runs fine with no warnings until 10% of the way through (revision 5670 of 53082) I encounter: svnadmin: E185004: Unexpected end of svndiff input.

I don't know how to bypass the error. Also, since the file is so large, I don't know how to safely edit or split the dump file to troubleshoot.

Any help would be appreciated.

  • What `svnadmin` version do you run? Run `svnadmin --version` to find this out. – bahrep Jun 05 '17 at 18:51
  • BTW, what do you mean by "version 3"? Did you generate the dump from SVN 1.3 format repository? Or did you use SVN 1.3 command line tools and `svnadmin` in particular? – bahrep Jun 05 '17 at 18:57
  • You can always split the dump file on revision boundaries. You can use the --incremental for following dumps, so it records only the deltas – Peter Parker Jun 06 '17 at 12:59
  • The svnadmin --version command outputs the following: svnadmin, version 1.9.3 (r1718519) compiled Mar 14 2016, 07:39:01 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu – barelySentient Jun 06 '17 at 15:30
  • As for "version 3" it means that dump file is a deltas dump file. – barelySentient Jun 06 '17 at 15:32
  • I unfortunately don't have access to the original server anymore and am only left with my current dump file. – barelySentient Jun 06 '17 at 15:32
  • The dump file fails when it encounters a zip file, although I'm not sure if that's a coincidence. – barelySentient Jun 10 '17 at 23:09
