Branches can be quite large, since they contain full histories of projects. The branch for Launchpad itself is hundreds of megabytes, IIRC. > Is it possible to display a filesize under/next to "Get this branch" > (https://launchpad.net/~mdipierro/web2py/devel) ? It's possible, and we think it's a good idea. It's just not done yet. Bug 350031, https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad-code/+bug/350031 The bug is marked as In progress, but I'm pretty sure work has stalled. I'd be happy to help someone come up with a patch for this. > Or, just as good, is there a bzr command that I can probe the repo for this > information? 'bzr info -v lp:~mdipierro/web2py/devel' will give you an indication of its size in terms of number of revisions and committers. It won't tell you its size on disk. I don't think there is a bzr command that will give you that information. jml _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-users Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
