Hi, > > 2.5 GB in .git directory sounds crazy and incomprehensible to me. > > 2.5GB is for the full history, if you only care about the main branch, > you can clone with: > > (snip) I do not reproduce this, but instead see `du` reporting 1.2GiB just after a simple clone (no options), which AFAIK contains the whole history. I have a complete mirror of SVN that I update with scripts around `svnrdump dump` and `svnadmin load`, and its size is 6.1GiB (I pack it regularly). For the record, here are the sizes of the `.svn` directories of some checkouts I currently have: - stable/12 at rev 355888: 1.9GiB - stable/12 at rev 361580: 2.4GiB - head at rev 361584: 2.7GiB I must point out that I don't remember the exact creation history of these. It is probable that, to create new ones, I did full copies (`cp -a`) of an old one followed by `svn switch`. Don't know if this can have an influence on these numbers (didn't test with pristine checkouts). Important tip: When using `du`, don't forget to pass the '-A' option, especially if using ZFS + compression. -- Olivier Certner
