i.e. why not flatten file history completely, and therefore make clones so very much quicker? Right now my subgit conversion of Boost consumes about 800Mb. Eliminating most of that download would be useful. If people want to see and/or use history from pre-conversion, they can use the SVN repo.
Will this also mean that the very many links in docs to Trac #1234 fixed items will still work without any changes? I worry, ignorantly, that links won't after GIT conversion. Paul --- Paul A. Bristow, Prizet Farmhouse, Kendal LA8 8AB UK +44 1539 561830 07714330204 pbristow@hetp.u-net.com
