Re: Trying to get svnadmin to create repository with fsfs vice bdb

Nevermind.  I have a misunderstanding of how subversion is actually storing the data; I was comparing it to CVS, which was a bad assumption on my part.

Subject: Trying to get svnadmin to create repository with fsfs vice bdb

Hi,
I'm running Debian etch (AMD64) and have subversion 1.4.2 (current stable) installed.  I've been trying to set up a new repository with the following command:

  svnadmin create --fs-type fsfs /extra/scm/svn/repos

It successfully sets up the repository, but it is always using BDB, no matter what I do.  The subversion documentation:

   http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.4/svn.reposadmin.create.html#svn.reposadmin.basics.creating

... says the default is fsfs, but either way, by adding '--fs-type fsfs' or not, it always creates it as BDB.


Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
- Jeff
