Would you envisage it as being repository wide (any files that are not compressed get compressed upon next commit) or per file basis, such as adding a 'z' optoin to -k such as -kz or -kbz. You would also need to define a level of compression would you not? Would the compression/decompression add much load to the system at all, I could imagine some large repositories it could become rather sluggish. Mark
