Branko Čibej commented on SVN-4555:
-----------------------------------
Here are some issues that an implementation of this feature would have to
address:
* Security: Access rights to files in a centralised pristine store could be
different than in a particular working copy; this could lead to information
leak.
* Usability: Since working copies would no longer be self-contained, moving or
copying them (either on the same computer or to a different one) would no
longer be a trivial operation.
* Correctness: We currently maintain reference counts for pristine files in the
working copy database. A centralised pristine store would have to keep its own
reference count, external to the WC-DB.

> If a user checks out the same repository multiple times for some reason it
> would
> be nice if they could share there pristine database in a central location at
> the
> users request. If there was a pristine directory in the ~/.subversion or a
> ~/.svn_prestine that the client could load all pristine copies into based on
> the
> hash it could be used by multiple checks.
