The "svnmucc put db.sql file:///var/lib/svn/db/db.sql” worked.

The “— -“ also worked, I think this is a quirk of apr-util:

https://apr.apache.org/docs/apr/1.7/group__apr__getopt.html#ga80d6ff2213da4e25406b3f179fa13989

Ideally the return message of APR_BADARG needs to be updated to hint that a “—“ might be needed.
