Just having an idea about this...are there any files in the source tree that exceed 32kbytes?What if a database solution were created to: Contain every version of every file of every branch in a nicely indexed database table The md5/sha256 of each entry mentioned above 512 byte chunks of each file mentioned above in a nicely indexed table The md5/sha256 of every 512 bytes of the above mentioned file.
uh-ah. i guess that's for checkout, but still it seems very wrong. I mean, really. Uh, I can't stop shuddering. I just hope you are not serious :) and the database will be really huge... actually, it sounds like git, just worse.
File checkins could simply be a file upload, or a mime encoded fetch request, or an email message, or an ftp drop, or an scp copy, or an rsync push...
file checkins right now are cvs checkins, and I guess that will stay for some time. cheers simon -- Serve - BSD +++ RENT this banner advert +++ ASCII Ribbon /"\ Work - Mac +++ space for low €€€ NOW!1 +++ Campaign \ / Party Enjoy Relax | http://dragonflybsd.org Against HTML \ Dude 2c 2 the max ! http://golden-apple.biz Mail + News / \
