rsvndump 0.5.5 is now available. This
release fixes a bug introduced in 0.5.3
(#2997558)
which could led to crashes when dumping a
subdirectory. Additionally, performance issues caused by
unnecessary stats for copied revisions have been fixed. The
full list of changes can be found in the
ChangeLog. As usual, the source package is
is available as a tarball compressed using either gzip or bzip2 as
well as in zip format.
rsvndump 0.5.4 is now available. This release mainly fixes dumping with text deltas. In previous versions, the delta didn't work and the full file content would be dumped in svndiff format. Please note that these dumps could be imported just fine and resulted in correct repositories. Additionally, support for the --config-dir option of the normal svn command-line client has been added, and a couple of minor issues have been fixed. The build instructions for Windows have been updated, too. The full list of changes can be found in the ChangeLog. As usual, the source package is is available as a tarball compressed using either gzip or bzip2 as well as in zip format.
rsvndump 0.5.3 is now available. This
release fixes a couple of serious bugs reported via the
bug tracker
at SourceForge, including a bug that could prevent directory
properties from being dumped
(#2898815).
Additionally, detection for paths affected by directory copy
operations has been added. This fixes the generation of unloadable
dumps observed in specific cases (as reported in
#2898487
by lordnightwalker). Dumping root node modifications has been fixed,
too.
The full list of the changes can be found in the
ChangeLog. The source package is

Please note that the Debian packages haven't been updated (and are
unlikely to be updated again). Please refer to the
source tarball instead.
rsvndump 0.5.2 is now available,
fixing wrong Node-copyfrom-rev revision numbers when dumping subdirectories,
as reported in #2820774 by poeml.
Furthermore, a possible segmentation fault when dumping in incremental mode
and starting at revision 1 has been fixed.
A more detailed description of the changes can be found in the
ChangeLog. As usual, the source package is
is available as a tarball compressed using either gzip or bzip2 as
well as in zip format. The Debian packages have been updated, too.
I should also note that for practical reason, the downloads archive
has been replaced by a simple link to the files available at SourceForge,
as I've uploaded all previous releases via the file release system.
rsvndump 0.5.1 is now available,
fixing a bug that caused properties to get dropped silently and some
memory leaks. Additionally, rsvndump will now build successfully using
the MSVC compiler on Windows. A corresponding CodeBlocks project file
is included in the source distribution, which is now available in zip
format, too.

On a side note, the web page and its "About" section have been
updated and are now hosted on SourceForge.net.
All previous releases of rsvndump are now available at the
downloads archive.
rsvndump 0.5 is now available.
This is again a complete rewrite of the program and introduces
new features as well as bugfixes. The most important features
are the ability to perform incremental dumps and the support
for dumping text deltas instead of the usual fulltext. The
authentication system has been been improved, too. The bugfixes
include a fix for missing file contents if a file has been copied
and changed in the same revision file, which could occur under
certain circumstances.
Some of the command line switches of the 0.4-series have become
obsolete now. You will get a warning message if you use them,
so you should probably do a manual run if you invoke rsvndump
via a different program, e.g. as a cronjob.

ChangeLog. As usual, the source package is

I have also uploaded my local repository to
github.org,
so please feel free to clone it.
rsvndump 0.4.4-1 is now available,
fixing build issues with Subversion 1.6.1. Please note that you
will see warnings about deprecated functions when compiling
the package, but it should build without errors.

rsvndump 0.4.4 is now available. This
release adds a command line option to disable the need for manually
accepting a SSL certificate (--no-check-certificate), which
is useful when calling rsvndump from within a script. Additionally,
the program has been made translatable using
GNU gettext.
A German translation of all output strings is already included.
As usual, the source package is available as a tarball compressed
using either gzip or bzip2. The Debian packages have been updated,

rsvndump 0.4.3 is now available.
This release includes new features as well as bugfixes: the
command line option --dump-uuid has been added, which
dumps the uuid of a repository and is useful if repositories
should be cloned. A bug which could occur when dumping a
sub-directory via a file://-url has been fixed. As a minor change,
the svn dump format produces has been changed to version "2"
because svndumpfilter refuses to read dump files with
format "3" in current versions (currently, this does not affect
the rsvndump's output except for a number at the start).

ChangeLog. As usual, the source package is
available as a tarball compressed using either gzip or bzip2.

I updated the ABOUT-section on this web page, and there's now a seperate page which serves as a news archive. Only the 5 latest news items will be displayed on the main page now.

be dumped in offline mode when using the --quiet flag has been
fixed.

ChangeLog. As usual, the source package is available

Additionally, rsvndump is now released under the GNU General Public License, Version 3, which was needed because some autoconf macros which are used by rsvndump have been licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0. This license is incompatible to the GPLv2, so I upgraded to the compatible GPLv3.
rsvndump 0.3.2 is now available.
This is mainly a bugfix release, fixing a memory leak due to long-living
memory pools. Additionally, changes were made to the node dumping order.
