Hi all, First of all, I would like to thank you for your dedication to this issue I would like to resume:
a) there is work on serverside in 1.7 that cares about file size b) svnlook filesize makes use of it in 1.7 c) there might be issues related to svn:eol and svn:keywords d) It is worth to create a ER for svn log I will try to dig into the code and see if I am able to understand, the rough structure of it. Where should I look to, as a starting point? I am not anymore so fluent in C but I will try my best. For sure I should know more details about the architecture, but I would like to concentrate on the part that deals with this one.
