There are 615 extensions in trunk/extensions With the new setup, would someone which has a checkout of everything need to open 616 connections (network latency, ssh authentication, etc.) whenever he wants to pull? svn:externals already noticeably slow checkouts, and there's only a bunch of them. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
