Recently one email to pld-cvs was blocked due to large size of generated diff. The "offending" file was gcc-branch.diff from crossmingw64-gcc which is 11M.
Does this file include and PLD specific changes or is it just a diff between released version and tip of branch in some foreign (not PLD) repository? In latter case maybe it should be kept in the distfiles in compressed form? Right now there are following limits file sizes in git repositories: 1) unlimited - files *.patch, *.diff, *.spec 2) 2000000 bytes - text files 3) 200000 bytes - all other files so very big patches are accepted. However I wonder if it should be the case. Another question is if we decide to move it to distfiles should the git repo be rewritten to not include history of this file and reduce repo size. There are other similar files. Below I include the list of every file larger then 1M which its maximum size in history: 24145161 gcc.git/gcc-branch.diff 22482085 crossmingw64-gcc.git/gcc-branch.diff 18974931
