Hi, Erik,
Von: Erik Huelsmann [mailto:ehu...@gmail.com] > To substantiate that claim, I took the pristines directory from my Subversion > working copy and did some experimenting. See results below: > $ ls -ls uncompressed-pristines/*/*.svn-base | awk '{ tot += $1; } END { >print "total size " tot; }' total size: 188724 > $ cp -Rp uncompressed-pristines/ compressed-pristines > $ gzip compressed-pristines/*/*.svn-base > $ ls -ls compressed-pristines/*/*.svn-base.gz | awk '{ tot += $1; } END { >print "total size " tot; }' total size: 52320 > $ cat compressed-pristines/*/*.svn-base.gz > combined-compressed-file Are you sure you should not combine the uncompressed pristines, and compress them afterwards? AFAICS, one of the points of the proposal is to profit from the inter-file redundancies.
