This is not even remotely a fair comparison to monotone, which is keeping a central db. > I'm in the process of cloning the repo myself, and will check if doing > a more aggressive (high --window and --depth values) repack will get > us below that 148, but I'm thinking it's just that big a repo. Anyway, It's much better than that. I just cloned git://github.com/felipec/pidgin-clone.git and the _whole thing_ is 148M, including the working tree. His object db is only 88M. So he can do his 11 trees in 61 * 11 + 88 = 759M, saving 141M over monotone. And I am repacking with insane depth and window right now to see if we can get it smaller (though really, it is not that big a deal, since the size is dominated by his 11 working trees). -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
