Source file consolidation on CVS

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'll be working to consolidate some of the source files on the CVS box
over the next couple of days.   Pay attention and let me know
immediately if something breaks.  I don't foresee any issues.  Right
now legacy, cvs, and dist all have individual sources in them.  The
sources are stored by file name and md5sum, for example:

putty-0.58.tar.gz/ffb78a7db7e4802896189b2112714a9f/putty-0.58.tar.gz

A collision between the different trees is unlikely.  The purpose for
this consolidation is to ease the efforts of the legacy team and
provide them a proper development and build environment.  In the end a
source tarball is a source tarball, it makes sense to store them in
one spot.  Currently the dist repo is 73G and the extras repo is 12G.
It seems a shame to make a copy of all of that when the exact same
files would be a directory away.

Send objections, comments, suggestions and consecutive unmarked-bills my way.
