W00t!
The versioned contents are source files; not exactly a huge WC by
today's standards but believe it or not this makes a big
difference
for me, as I often operate on WCs this size directly on embedded
systems whose storage is somewhat constrained, and also on
ramdrives,
where it's nice to cut usage in half.
Oh, interesting -- I hadn't thought of that use case at all.
One thing I noticed: With i525pod enabled, svn does not delete
empty
.svn/pristine/??/ subdirectories when no longer needed. (Not sure
what
the correct terminology is for those 2-digit-hex-code dirs.) It
does
purge the pristine files within these subdirectories, just not
the
subdirectories themselves. They even survive a
'svn cleanup --vacuum-pristines'. I haven't yet looked at the
code to
see whether non-i525pod SVN ever deletes these or not, or if
there's a
simple fix. I don't consider this a showstopper or a terribly big
deal
but unless this is expected behavior, I'd like to at least file
an
issue for it.
Totally not a showstopper, agreed; I'm not even positive it's
really a problem? But it makes sense to have a ticket for it
until we decide.
Summary: Overall, I'm impressed so far. Thanks for everyone's
contributions, whether code, input, or financial, for making this
possible!
