Hmm, this really seems like a black/white topic. Looking at the replies I would have to assume that most of you would have the "size"-column in windows explorer hidden since that information is "useless". I think that it is a very crucial information. I do understand that the file size for text files (code, etc) is negligible in most cases, but as I initially wrote I am working with rather large monolithic files that I need version-controlled. (CorelDRAW, Access-MDBs, etc)

I had hoped that some other people had worked with non-tiny files with (T)SVN before and noticed the same "problem" (not knowing the file sizes / development of file sizes over the course of commits).

It's one of those features where if you don't work with larger files you will never come to think about needing that information.

Anyways. I have followed this discussion for quite some time now and for me it's the time to either:
a) write a small script that does what I want and take it with me everywhere I need it.
b) a dev decides it's a nice feature to have after all and is willing to implement this in the future so all TSVN users can benefit instantly.

Again, thanks for the interesting discussion so far!
