Package: subversion Version: 1.6.12dfsg-2 Severity: wishlist Tags: upstream
Running svn update will crate a .svn/lock file in every subdirectory. This slows down the update quite noticeable for large repositories such as the pkg-perl trunk [1]. It gets more annoying on encrypted disks as the system gets unresponsive once the changes get written back to the disk :/ It would be nice if Subversion would content itself with creating less lock files, for example by operations in subdirectories checking for locks in the parent directories (maybe creating their locks there as well).
