Marco:
I'll try kcompare on the huge files both on and off the NFS
file system to see if it has a noticeable impact.
Johannes:
I read somewhere in the past week that it was possible to maintain
our existing CVS environment with git. I though it was a separate
package to export git back to cvs but I just noticed a git-cvsserver
and as a std part of git and was wondering about using that.
We have a number of build machines with flamebox perl scripts pulling
out CVS branches for builds. I was wondering what is the best way to
use git and it's nicer pull/push model and merge facility and possibly
maintain CVS exports for scripts doing builds if possible the cvsweb
and bonsai (CVS Query Form) that a number of engineers are currently
using. I started looking over out flamebox scripts with the intent
up converting them over to git but I mentioned the git to cvs
coexistence and we are wondering if that's a better route than
upgrading the flamebox scripts. Having our existing cvsweb, bonsai,
and gitweb along with the git utilities seems at least desirable.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
