[Duplicity-talk] SVN Backup?

[cwood]

I need to backup an svn repository.  The correct way, apparently, is  
to use 'svnadmin hotcopy' to create a copy of the repository so that  
the backup is clean (e.g. nobody made changes to the repository while  
the copy was happening).

However, each night when it creates a copy of the repository, it now  
has new time stamps on the files.  Chances are that very little changed.

In testing it, it appears that duplicity ignores the file date  
differences.  Generally, what rules does duplicity (librsync?) use for  
knowing when a file is different?
