[Gnu-arch-users] Improving Archive Cached Revisions

[Andre Kuehne]

Hey guys,

The current Archive Cached Revisions implementation seems a little brute force
to me. A logical step to a more flexible solution would be something like this:

"tla cacherev --level 0"
    standard cached rev (full backup)
"tla cacherev --level 1"
    cached rev is a changeset from the last level 0 cached rev
"tla cacherev --level 2"
    ...

This would be especially helpful for large projects with lots of small
changesets, but also in general. Tom's maxime that disk space is cheap
(http://regexps.srparish.net/www/arch-tech.html#cheapdisk) doesn't mean
you have to throw it away ;)

(If this was discussed already, some hint would be nice.)

Regards
