Hello everybody,
while I was able to successfully clone the pkgsrc and xsrc via anonhg, I
still bite my teeth at src. As already described in one of my previous
e-mails, I tried to limit the number of changesets called up at the same
time with --rev, so that I don't lose everything in the event of a
fault. Now the message "transaction canceled" came. Afterwards "Roll
back failed, please run hg recover". Unfortunately, "hg recover" also
reports an abort because an automatic repair is obviously not possible.
So now I'm starting again ...
... and I wondered whether it is possible or already considered to offer
a finished clone as tar.gz for download from time to time - as a seed
for the continuation of your own local clone? Or maybe it already exists
and I just haven't found it yet? I can remember that there is something
like that on FreeBSD for the SVN - download tar.gz, unpack it and then
only use svnsync to catch up for the last six months.
Many Greetings
Matthias
