I do; I use svn to manage all my software and electronic design projects. However I rarely need to save binary files and even then those files do not change often. About the server side, I found svnserve efficient. The largest project I host is libgpmi; a fresh checkout of branches/+trunk/ is ~10 MB (with a text base, which means a local backup, so the net weight should be the half). The project has a long history, with about 2000 commits since 2005. Server side the project takes 17 MB. >John Griessen > > >_______________________________________________ >geda-dev mailing list >[email protected] >http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-dev > _______________________________________________ geda-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-dev
