For example, when using HTTPS, the default behavior is to issue a REPORT command and the streams all of the content in one response. But you can configure your client and server to issue separate GET request for each file. When you are using this mode then the client does not request any of the pristines that is already has. http://subversion.apache.org/docs/release-notes/1.8.html#neon-deleted Specifically try setting this option in your client "servers" file: http-bulk-updates=no I am not as familiar with svn:// and file:// protocols. I suspect they just support this behavior by default though. -- Thanks Mark Phippard http://markphip.blogspot.com/
