Hello everyone, I am currently working at a place where, IMHO, the network is poorly configured. Connections are unreliable and average transmission rates are worse than poor ADSL dialup. Under these conditions we have a few problems with subversion. A brand new checkout of the entire repo is often interrupted with socket errors. Sometimes these force us to say 'svn cleanup' before resuming with 'svn up'. Even when the connection is not dropped it is very slow to get all the files. Hence, I was wondering if the network code might be improved to make it more robust in the face of network glitches. Also, could the file fetches be done in parallel?
I realize these are non-trivial changes but is there any chance a future of subversion may have them? Please? Otherwise the robustness would have to be added at application level in tools such as Tortoise SVN. That's fine for Windows but I also see the issue on the command line on linux. -- Regards, Andrew Marlow http://www.andrewpetermarlow.co.uk
