> should use compression when getting log
> ---------------------------------------
>
> Key: SCM-65
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SCM-65
> Project: Maven SCM (Moved to GitHub Issues)
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: maven-scm-provider-cvs
> Affects Versions: 1.0-alpha-4
> Environment: WinXP
> Client: Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.5.02 (Servalan) Build 2115
> (client/server)
> Server: Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.0.34 (client/server)
> Reporter: Brian Ewins
> Assignee: Emmanuel Venisse
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.0-beta-1
>
>
> Continuum uses SCM to grab the logs hourly, if there are any updates - which
> is pretty much always on any active project. On our project, this takes 1m
> 55s for a 16Mb download. While logs are being downloaded, the repository is
> locked (this may be a CVSNT issue only). So, for 2 mins an hour, no-one can
> do commits. This is a large enough chunk of time that it causes complaints.
> While continuum could ask for a smaller chunk of the log, the biggest
> difference is made by using the -z3 flag to compress it. Timing that in our
> situation it takes only 15 seconds to download the log, which is much more
> acceptable.
> the fix is to change CvsChangeLogCommand to read :
> ...
> Commandline cl = new Commandline();
> cl.setExecutable( "cvs" );
> cl.setWorkingDirectory( fileSet.getBasedir().getAbsolutePath() );
> + cl.createArgument().setValue( "-z3" ); // use compression
> cl.createArgument().setValue( "-f" ); // don't use ~/.cvsrc
> cl.createArgument().setValue( "-d" );
> ...
> of course this may have consequences on other cvs implementations; but having
> some way of configuring this would make it usable.
