I can't speak to a python-on-bzr, but for another project, doing the initial branch of a huge and deep history took maybe an hour, hour- and-a-half over the network. I know that bzr is trying to improve this. However, by checking out into a repository, once all that history was on my local machine, branching was trivially fast. And if your pushing changes into a remote repository that's up-to-date, that will be very fast too. So yes, there's some initial overhead but with bzr done right, for most subsequent work, there's no perceptible lag due to the scm. - -Barry -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (Darwin) iQCVAwUBRe2QM3EjvBPtnXfVAQIaSAP/SAoPvqTQZgfG8EDZB6J2hgggAUgWlYun xCtYYtqgnFq0afBOHP1/K1OuD5SFsHghjrLykJjia6TNRC2MpRblk/44Xc5syXCJ aCCJ7t1CLZWMjLjyEpPIcpwBNC6DNfOQYZc28b5BabeIHsF3FqsZb4sIKsSU+dK2 gigs3rjbHRE= =z/vM -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
