<h2>Examples</h2>
<p>This shows the beginning of loading a repository from
a backup file (made, of course, with <span class="command"><strong>svnadmin
dump</strong></span>):</p>
<div class="informalexample">
<pre class="screen">
$ svnadmin load /var/svn/restored < repos-backup
<<< Started new txn, based on original revision 1
* adding path : test ... done.
* adding path : test/a ... done.
…
</pre>
</div>
<p>Or if you want to load into a subdirectory:</p>
<div class="informalexample">
<pre class="screen">
$ svnadmin load --parent-dir new/subdir/for/project \
/var/svn/restored < repos-backup
<<< Started new txn, based on original revision 1
* adding path : test ... done.
* adding path : test/a ... done.
…
</pre>
</div>
<p>Newer versions of Subversion have grown more strict
regarding the format of the values of Subversion's own
built-in properties. Of course, properties created with
older versions of Subversion wouldn't have benefitted from
that strictness, and as such might be improperly
formatted. Dump streams carry property values as-is, so
using Subversion 1.7 to load dump streams created from
repositories with ill-formatted property values will, by
default, trigger a validation error. There are several
workaround for this problem. First, you can manually
repair the problematic property values in the source
repository and recreate the dump stream. Or, you can
manually tweak the dump stream itself to fix those
property values. Finally, if you'd rather not deal with
the problem right now, use the
<code class="option">--bypass-prop-validation</code> option
with <span class="command"><strong>svnadmin load</strong></span>.</p>
