#### Using an SVN Backup
98+
99+
All Scrum Masters receive an email with a link to download an SVN backup. This allows you to download a *[repository-id].dump* file to your local device and you can use this file to restore the repository locally.
100+
101+
To set up your local SVN repository, follow these steps:
102+
103+
1. Download and Install VisualSVN Server – Use [VisualSVN Server](https://www.visualsvn.com/server/download/) and import the existing repository from the *.dump* file. This will create a locally hosted SVN repository.
104+
105+
2. Access the Repository – Use [TortoiseSVN](https://tortoisesvn.net/) to check the repository. This will allow you to inspect the *.mpr* file or any other files within the repository.
106+
107+
{{% alert color="info" %}}To inspect files from a historical revision, use **TortoiseSVN** and select **Update to revision** to check a specific revision.{{% /alert %}}
