RE: deltification question

Except that you can explicitly undeltify certain revisions of your choosing,
if for instance it's an often retrieved revision...

So you need another bit saying that this revision should not be
automatically deltified b/c the admin wants to have it undeltified.

Is there a convenient way to "deltify revisions that have not been
deltified"?

    svnadmin deltify -r1:HEAD repos

increases the database size when run repeatedly (including pruning
log files). (In fact, I wasn't paying attention the first time I
ran it, so I'm not sure it EVER decreases space.)

If there isn't already, maybe there should be a bit in each
revision that says whether it has already been deltified, so svn
can skip over it quickly (and without using more space)?

Seems to me the default interface for use in cron jobs (as opposed
to after each commit) should only require "svnadmin deltify repos"
to deltify anything undeltified, instead of HEAD.
