A "svn cleanup" reduces the pristine size to normal, but 1. this isn't documented (I'm wondering how many users know that); 2. this isn't automatic. About (2), svn could warn the user when a cleanup could be needed. I don't know what is the best solution. -- Vincent Lefèvre <[email protected]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
