Visual SVN Server - projects storage location

I recently installed VisualSVN Se开发者_StackOverflow社区rver. 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.

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.
