size of snapshot archive
Hello glasgow-haskell-users, i'm tried to download newer snapshot of 6.6 and found that now it's 74 mb! why it is so large and why it's so enlarged after 6.6 release? isn't it possible to reduce size of this package? -- Best regards, Bulat mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users

Does this include darcs version info? I've noticed that darcs generates suspiciously large quantities of context info for very small patches (e.g. ~7000 lines of context for a ~700 line patch) -- for what I've seen so far, the context section might be growing linearly with the file's history. For what it's worth, I've got a partial tree that is ~64M in size, of which version info is about 60%, and current source is about 40%.

Darcs send packs data much tighter than darcs itself does, and the results are highly compressable. I have a HEAD tree, obtained with ./darcs-all --extra get --complete (you're not misreading that); darcs sending everything (incl. subrepositoried) into an empty repo, and 7zipping the patch bundles, produces a single 28mbyte file containing the entire history of ghc+extralibs.
