How to create offline SVN Repository backup on Windows?

Question

I have SVN repo and I would like to make a local copy which would server as backup when server would go down and I need all the information from repo like commit comments.

It needs to be transferable to a new computer if needed.

I have found this solution to do the dump, but can I open it on Windows without SVN Server?

You would still need a server, but it can be a local one, like VISUALSVN Server.

Then, with svnadmin, you can extract your sump, and with TortoiseSVN, you can explore its content. All from your machine, without depending on a remote server.
