Re: [Monotone-devel] oversized payload

[CooSoft Support]

    Hi Hugo,

    I don't know the precise answer off the top of my head but I have certainly done this with files that are more than 200MiB (getting onto 300MiB or more). You say it is an archive, is it an archive that can sensibly be unpacked and then checked in? Just a thought.

Hi,

monotone refused to synchronize between a client and server.

On the server side I got the error message

mtn: warning: protocol error while processing peer <some ip>:50331: 'oversized payload of '468421054' bytes'

:-)

This happened after adding a large (well, HUGE) file to the repository.  I was actually using monotone as a means to distribute an archive to several target machines.

To solve the problem, I reverted to a backup repository on the client side.

But what is the policy of monotone wrt file size that can be checked into a repository?
