## Name

svnadmin crashtest — Simulate a process that crashes.

## Synopsis

`svnadmin crashtest REPOS_PATH`

## Description

Open the repository at `REPOS_PATH`, then abort, thus simulating a process that crashes while holding an open repository handle. This is used for testing automatic repository recovery (a new feature in Berkeley DB 4.4). It's unlikely that you'll need to run this command.

## Options

None

## Examples

    $ svnadmin crashtest /var/svn/repos
    Aborted

Exciting, isn't it?
