Description

The BDB FS back-end is not usable for serious applications because of the
varioius repository-wedging problems. Berkeley DB 4.4.x introduces the
DB_REGISTER mechanism, which can be used to implement automatic database
recovery in the case of a "benign" program crash.

This task tracks the status of DB_REGISTER support in Subversion.
