I have recently imported a Subversion repository with
1.6.4.rc0.17.gd9eb0, and ran into an interesting tidbit. The .git/svn
directory is the largest directory, taking up about twice as much
space as the .git/objects directory.
Most of the space is taken up by index files under .git/svn under .git/
svn/tag or .git/svn/<branch name> directories in the subversion tree.
The repository uses the normal Subversion layout (trunk/tags/branches)
and was setup with git svn init -s. There are a lot of tags in the
repository - about one per day for the past several years.
What are the index files under .git/svn used for? Am I doing anything
wrong? Can the index files under .git/svn be safely removed? My
brief look at git-svn.perl makes me think that they are temporary, but
I'm not sure.
Thanks,
Robert
