+ No, there is just a cronjob that sync every 5 minutes :
+ /usr/bin/svnsync synchronize file://$name"
+
+ It doesn't seem to have a way to resync changelog, according to the
+ help of the software.
+
+ The faq speak of using svnsync copy-revprops, 
+ http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/notes/svnsync.txt,
+ not sure if this is not a costly operation ( or one that will take more 
+ and more time with a growing repository :/ ).
