 3.6 SVN_FS_FS_MAX_LINEAR_DELTIFICATION
 
   Scope:     libsvn_fs_fs
-  Purpose:   max length + 1 of the linear deltification history
-             before skip-deltification kicks in
+  Purpose:   Controls the space efficiency vs. reconstruction costs tradeoff
+             of rep deltification.  Defines the max length of the linear
+             deltification history before skip-deltification kicks in.
+             Values < 2 result in skip-delta-only behavior.
   Default:   16
-  Range:     natural integers
-  Suggested: 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64
+  Range:     natural integers; should be a power of 2
+  Suggested: 1, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64
 
 3.7 SVN_FS_FS_MAX_DELTIFICATION_WALK
 
   Scope:     libsvn_fs_fs
-  Purpose:   max skip deltification range. Change histories
-             longer than that will be restarted with a fulltext.
+  Purpose:   Limits the skip deltification range to provide commit runtime
+             guarantees. Change histories longer than that will be restarted
+             with a fulltext.  Values < 1 disable deltification.
   Default:   1023
-  Range:     natural integers
-  Suggested: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 11
+  Range:     natural integers; should be a power of 2 minus one
+  Suggested: 0, 63, 1023, 4095, 16383
