That only compares against the large revision (which is inside the hidden .svn directories on you system) - which explains the speed. Doing a diff against older revisions or 'svn blame' on a file or doing a show log (eg: changes made in January 2009 or Lazarus repository) it needs to access the server and this is horribly slow in SubVersion! Every Monday I update the "fixes" branches in the Git mirror repositories for FPC and Lazarus. I ask svn2.freepascal.org for a commit log between HEAD and the last revision (previous Monday)... I then go make a cup of coffee and often by the time I get back, it just completed the task. In Git, any such actions are <1 second. > > Linux seems to work better for everything. :-) Nope, I use SubVersion under Linux too. It still sucks! :) Regards, - Graeme - -- fpGUI Toolkit - a cross-platform GUI toolkit using Free Pascal http://opensoft.homeip.net/fpgui/ -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
