I would like to take a backup of my prod server and import it into a dev instance, but I don't want the issues. I only need the workflows, custom fields, etc. I've been able to take the xml files from the backup and remove the issues using XML tools, - e.g. XPath, etc - but that didn't remove enough. I think I need to know more about the schema or in order to get everything out that I want out. Any advice?
If you just want to import the configuration from prod to dev then I suggest using one of the plugins in the marketplace.

The safest way is to import the xml and then delete the issues manually. If you don't want any of the projects I believe deleting the project will delete all the issues in it.
