Hi Roberto, Martin,
You are LUCKY ;=)) I sometimes see just 20 Kb/sec, or
less... a full clone is 'days'!, and only using --depth 1
saves my sanity... gitorious is _SLOW_ for me, most of
the time, regardless of the clone size...
On a mapserver clone I can see 200, or even 300+ Kb/sec,
so this is what I use now... Thanks for this alternate...
But also I would certainly welcome a re-opening of the
split 'fgdata' repo discussion... I forget how it exactly
ended, except no change was made... There seemed some
good ideas in there...
My --depth 1 clone is about 6GB, with Aircraft being abt
3.4GB. It seems to makes sense to have say a new 'fgair'
repo of 2-3GB, reducing the present fgdata 'base'
to 2-4GB? Nearly a split in 2...
Maybe fgfs exe could be adjusted to look in $FG_ROOT/fgair,
as well as $FG_ROOT/Aircraft, then 'aircraft' could be cloned,
and updated into/inside the 'base' clone directory, like -
data/Aircraft
/fgair
/AI
/.git
...
and base .gitignore adjusted to ignore this 'fgair'...
and not to some 'separate' local directory, which would
then involve copying, moving, etc...
Anyway, glad to hear your first build went well
overall... enjoy the flying...
Geoff.
