It's a bit more than double the size, right?
CVS is 320 Mb, svn is 800 Mb. And since off-line operation is important to you, that's the price you pay to have an off-line diff. But you save quite a lot of time while reviewing your changes before committing them. > But I have one specific question that I hope you can answer right ahead > because you said you worked on all the scripts, too: Does > translation-check still work as expected?

Any such meta-information can be updated daily through a cron script on Alioth and the result be stored in a real file within the repository so that it's readily available during the build and no net-access is needed. Furthermore, we could vastly improve the usefulness of mindelta/maxdelta if we decided to base it on percentage of original content that changed instead of on number of changes. > And would PeterK's script to purge aged outdated pages be easily > adaptable to that? I don't know this script but I don't see why not.
