[PATCH 10/10] svn-fe manual: Clarify warning about deltas in dump files

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

 



Those in the know would notice that dump file format version 2
means "svnadmin dump --no-deltas", but for the rest of us, an
explicit reminder is useful.

That’s the end of the series.  Thanks for reading.

On the horizon, as you may have guessed, are changes to use
dumpfile format v3.  Doing so sanely requires two-way communication
with fast-import, I think (as discussed).  Ram has already put
together a prototype delta applier, so it seems to be mostly a matter
of plumbing now.
