Subversion 1.4 已經發行，這次升級能夠讀取所有以往的repository，所以只要放心的裝下去就可以。新功能主要是svnsync的備份工具，以及支援Berkeley DB 4.4與auto recovery。

• svnsync, a new repository mirroring tool
• Huge working-copy performance improvements
• Support for BerkeleyDB 4.4 and its "auto recovery" feature
• Size improvements to the binary delta algorithm
• A handful of new command switches
• Many improved APIs

在Subversion 1.4 Release Notes還有提到若dump再reload現有的repository，將會大幅縮小空間，有興趣的人不妨試試。
