Wow. That is a huge repository.

You can also force it to write all file content (blobs) out to temporary files rather than keeping them in memory by reading the stream from standard input:

   reposurgeon "read -" … <dump.svn
That will be slower and use more disk space, but maybe it will fit.


Thanks for the suggestions, I'll give that a try!

And yes, some of our repositories are huge. This one is about 240 GB, and comprises multiple projects/products.

Our "most important" repository is only 313,000 revisions, but those revisions take up 93 GB, so it's a not-insubstantial repository as well.
