----------------------------------------------------
Is there any way to donate to help get this change done?
As a long-time user of SVN, I strongly support it. We are using SVN at my
workplace but the double-storage need is killing us, due to the number of
large, binary files that we have to work with.

> 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.

> (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.)
