[Monotone-devel] Db row size, pushing a new project to the depot, etc.

[Kevin Smith]

Greetings again,

I finally subscribed to the list today, so I can't directly reply to 
some of the interesting messages that I have seen on the archives. I'm 
still optimistic that monotone will meet my needs, so I'm here to try to 
confirm that.

The db row limit was probably triggered by an attempt to check in a 4 
megabyte file. It wasn't intentional on my part. When I added my 
directory, monotone chose to include my project target .so shared 
library file, instead of ignoring it. Since I was just playing around, I 
didn't check the list of files that were added.

I hit the same depot problem that Jeremy reported yesterday. I'm glad to 
hear that you've added the addtree command, and I look forward to trying 
it. In my case, it wasn't a CVS import that triggered it. I had fetched 
monotone from your depot, and wanted to start my own branch depot. I 
assume the addtree command will do the right thing in my case as well.

Has anyone else raised concern about the depot database location? 
Without thinking it through thoroughly, it seems odd to require write 
rights in a cgi-bin directory.

I think that's all for now. I'll probably start trying to build monotone 
on my system so I can play with the new commands before the next 
release. Wish me luck...

Kevin
