Oh the new working copy format is absolutely great. The point is only that the pristine files appear to build up over time, which seems new. Any extra build up is removed with an svn cleanup, but I think a lot of people (like me) will not realize they need to perform that step regularly. I am actually in the process of doing an all-branches checkout right now, to try and take advantage of the consolidation available in the new working copy format. When using SSDs, disk usage matters. > I could not find any issue # for this either. If no one else replies within a few days, should I create an issue to track this? ---------- Joshua
