Then manually using deltas OK: ctm -v /pub/FreeBSD/development/CTM/svn-cur/svn-cur.0001.xz ctm -v /pub/FreeBSD/development/CTM/svn-cur/svn-cur.00[0-9][0-9].xz Suggestion: Maybe you might want a 5 digit numeric, not 4 digit, like cvs-cur ? (as eg there's often more cvs deltas than other deltas) > If it works, you should find that svn-cur is operated in exactly the > same way as the current ctm's. Confirmed. I've not tried accessing the resultant tree with svn yet (my Subversion book not read yet). In my /pub/FreeBSD/development/FreeBSD-SVN I have a single directory base which has 5.6 Gig of README.txt conf db format hooks locks I looked on http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo not yet : ctm-svn-cur ctm-svn-cur-fast I guess you will get those created after you see success reports such as this. When list ctm-svn-cur-fast is created I will subscribe. ( I have set up my mail aliases, .procmailrc, scripts & treees, to automaticaly store & apply when the mailing starts. ) Thanks Stephen !
