Client or server? And would it make any difference? I run my own server on Linux under Apache and the client on XP, both 32 and 64 bit. My primary client runs it under Apache on Win2003 Server. Over a slow VPN link and with 50,000 revisions, I don't see significant slowness. I haven't worried much about performance. Apart from my mention of symbolic links, I see no difference in functionality, and the link issue is a deficiency of the OS UI, not Subversion. Perhaps a better question is what you gain/lose running Apache on Windows. The hook system is probably more complex, because you don't get the ease of running arbitrary scripting languages that you do under *nix. There are registry hacks you can do to get scripts auto-recognized by extension, though. So you could add a registry entry to run the Perl interpreter (for example) when a script with a .pl extension is encountered. The *nix loader attempts to determine how to execute a file based on the first few bytes of the file. Scripts conventionally start with a comment line that specifies the interpreter to invoke. No special file naming is needed. _______________________________________________ vss2svn-users mailing list Project homepage: http://www.pumacode.org/projects/vss2svn/ Subscribe/Unsubscribe/Admin: http://lists.pumacode.org/mailman/listinfo/vss2svn-users-lists.pumacode.org Mailing list web interface (with searchable archives): http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.subversion.vss2svn.user _______________________________________________ vss2svn-users mailing list Project homepage: http://www.pumacode.org/projects/vss2svn/ Subscribe/Unsubscribe/Admin: http://lists.pumacode.org/mailman/listinfo/vss2svn-users-lists.pumacode.org Mailing list web interface (with searchable archives): http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.subversion.vss2svn.user
