Re: Mercurial repository set up for GCC that mirrors SVN


git-svnimport will not pack incrementally as it runs, so it might get
pretty large.  git-svn offers and incremental repack every x commits
(I chose 1000) and that did wonders for the import time for me.
Otherwise it will create a huge number of files before the final pack.

Cheers,

Harvey

I'm about 35% through the process of cloning the entire gcc repository
via git-svnimport, and the .git directory is 5.0GB.  This includes all
branches.

Danny, which of these matches what you've done with mercurial?
