That was the only thing we talked about -- as far as I understood, it was never suggested that we should stop tracking revisions of .txt or .tex files. I don't know the BigfilesExtension either, but it looks to me like we can achieve some more precise result manually. Something along the lines of: the .pdf's built from .tex's are not checked in, but they are in some standardized place on http://pypy.org, where we can fetch them, update them (via ssh), or point people to (via their url). This can be easily done with a script independent from Mercurial. (The point is of course that tracking revisions is a bit useless, because we can always go back in time and re-run latex2pdf.) Well, this was my 2 cents to this discussion, but maybe Ronny is just worrying too much. I don't think we care that much about saving space or transfer time. It's anyway not like everybody on the planet should download our extradoc repository. A bientôt, Armin. _______________________________________________ [email protected] http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
