And c) given that the *entire* repository will be replicated to everybody who wants to clone the eCos repository, how big do we really want the repository to be? the distributed source control systems allow the repository to be downloaded as a single huge file, so even if the repository size is in the hundreds of megabytes, it's not *too* bad if you are blessed with fiber... I haven't heard any guestimates on the expected git repository size(I don't know of a significant difference in repository size efficiency between the various systems). -- Øyvind Harboe http://www.zylin.com/zy1000.html ARM7 ARM9 ARM11 XScale Cortex JTAG debugger and flash programmer -- Before posting, please read the FAQ: http://ecos.sourceware.org/fom/ecos and search the list archive: http://ecos.sourceware.org/ml/ecos-discuss
