I just imported the automake CVS tree 's HEAD branch into arch (@
http://people.initd.org/automake).
Without a pristine, the {arch} dir takes up 16M, and the project tree
including the {arch} dir takes up 25M.
I suspect some users may find this disconcerting or worse.
Not sure what can be done sensibly about this... but I thought I'd raise
it as a discussion point... if only so that we can put it in the FAQ.
Oh, and the primary reason the dir is so big, is that there are 3763
~400 byte files using up 4.0K each on disk. WIthout that overhead, it's
only 3.3M in {arch}, and 2.6M of that in the logs subtree. The entire
project tree in that case is 8.2M - still a noticable overhead, but 25%
is better than 48%.
