Migrate Subversion to new server, different versions

I need to migrate a number of svn repos:

From: Linux 32-bit, svn 1.6.11

To: Linux 64-bit, svn 1.8.10

The repos are using fsfs file system db.

What is the best way to migrate the repos? I don't mind having downtime during the migration. Are there any implications going from 32-bit to 64-bit?

Can I install 1.8.10 on the destination and migrate direct to that? Or do I need to migrate to 1.6.11 and do an in-place upgrade to 1.8.10?

The Best and The Shortest

  • svnadmin dump PATH/TO/REPO > dumpfile on source
  • svnadmin create PATH/TO/REPO on target (SVN 1.8 X64 is OK)
  • svnadmin load PATH/TO/REPO < dumpfile on target
