NAME
       svn-fast-backup - very fast backup for Subversion fsfs repositories.

SYNOPSIS
       svn-fast-backup [-q] [-k{N|all}] [-f] [-t] [-s] repos_path backup_dir

DESCRIPTION
       svn-fast-backup  uses rsync snapshots for very fast backup of a Subversion fsfs repository
       at repos_path to backup_dir/repos-rev, the latest revision number in the repository.  Mul-
       tiple fsfs backups share data via hardlinks, so old backups are almost free, since a newer
       revision of a repository is almost a complete superset of an older revision.

       This is good for replacing incremental log-dump+restore-style backups because it  is  just
       as  space-conserving  and  even  faster;  there  is no inter-backup state (old backups are
       essentially caches); each backup directory is self-contained.  It has  the  same  command-
       line  interface as svn-hot-backup(1) (if you use --force), but only works for fsfs reposi-
       tories.

       svn-fast-backup keeps 64 backups by default and deletes backups older than these; this can
       be adjusted with the -k option.

OPTIONS
       -h, --help
              Shows some brief help text.

       -q, --quiet
              Quieter-than-usual operation.

       -k, --keep=N
              Keep a specified number of backups; the default is to keep 64.

       -k, --keep=all
              Do not delete any old backups at all.

       -f, --force
              Make a new backup even if one with the current revision exists.

       -t, --trace
              Show actions.

       -s, --simulate
              Don't perform actions.
