I'm not sure this counts as figuring it all out.. :) anders@sleipner:/opt/FlightGear$ du -sk fgdata 7930604 fgdata anders@sleipner:/opt/FlightGear$ git clone -l fgdata fgdata-test Cloning into fgdata-test... done. anders@sleipner:/opt/FlightGear$ du -sk fgdata fgdata-test/ 7930604 fgdata 4614988 fgdata-test/ After checking out the 2.2.0 branch in fgdata-test: anders@sleipner:/opt/FlightGear$ du -sk fgdata fgdata-test 7934896 fgdata 691112 fgdata-test A drawback is that the second clone fetches from the first so one would need to keep the first uptodate to get the latest commits in the second clone. It might be possible to set up fetch and branch tracking to avoid that. I'm not sure what happens if both clones fetch new commits from gitorious - probably that will lead to duplicate files (fetching from the first to the second local repro hopefully doesn't). Both repositories need to be on the same partition since filesystem hardlinks are used. The use of hardlinks also open up for some confusing du results - depending on in which order the files are attributed to directories. :) anders@sleipner:/opt/FlightGear$ du -sk fgdata/.git fgdata-test/.git 3252104 fgdata/.git 4992 fgdata-test/.git anders@sleipner:/opt/FlightGear$ du -sk fgdata-test/.git fgdata/.git 3246288 fgdata-test/.git 10808 fgdata/.git Cheers, Anders -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Anders Gidenstam WWW: http://www.gidenstam.org/FlightGear/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!
