Karl Fogel updated SVN-525:
---------------------------
Description:
{noformat:nopanel=true}
It's possible to make the cached pristine files in .svn/pristine/ optional.
Doing so would be a huge
storage savings on the client side, and would make Subversion even more
compelling as a system
for managing medium-large binary files.
A much more technically thorough explanation of this issue and its background
is available in [this 2020-12-29

below.
(Note that the cached pristine base versions used to be stored in
.svn/text-base/, so you'll probably see
references to that old location throughout this ticket. Also, there used to be
one .svn/ directory per
working tree directory; later that was changed to one .svn/ directory at the
top of the working tree.
Knowing that might also help clarify some of the older comments in this ticket.)
