I am working ATM on my Ubuntu workstation where I have a copy of the Tomcat 8.5 SVN. The disk usage is mostly in the tags directory and not in the .svn: ux@u18:/workspace/src/tc8.5.x$ du -sh tags 1.2G tags ux@u18:/workspace/src/tc8.5.x$ du -sh .svn 231M .svn ux@u18:/workspace/src/tc8.5.x$ du -sh . 1.5G . Each "tag" takes about 35MB: ux@u18:/workspace/src/tc8.5.x$ du -sh tags/TOMCAT_8_5_25 35M tags/TOMCAT_8_5_25 ux@u18:/workspace/src/tc8.5.x$ du -sh tags/TOMCAT_8_5_24 35M tags/TOMCAT_8_5_24 ux@u18:/workspace/src/tc8.5.x$ du -sh tags/TOMCAT_8_5_23 34M tags/TOMCAT_8_5_23 Igal
