If you are just going to do a file-level copy (which is OK unless 
someone makes changes during the backup) you should probably use rsync 
directly from the subversion server host.  If you want something that is 
guaranteed to be correct even while commits are happening you should use 
svnadmin hotcopy (must have file level access) or svnsync (can work 
remotely but builds a duplicate repository).
