If that's the case, fair enough ;) but really, why > 9 different copies of it ? it was YOU that turned them off. :) remember - svn blame? :) anyway - 9 extra copies are a bit paranoid - but it's "in case" somehow e manages to save several 0 byte "corrupt" files in a row due to fs corruption or badness (ext4, xfs, reiserfs etc. that allow u to get 0 byte files if u power cycle while files are being written to etc. - even if u use atomic rename). so sure - maybe 9 is overkill. we could live with 2 or 3... but whats a little bit of disk space between friends :) -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler) ras...@rasterman.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Protect Your Site and Customers from Malware Attacks Learn about various malware tactics and how to avoid them.
