Subject: Re: Maximum repository size and reiserfs question
To: Danny Sung <dsung@lantronix.com>
As long as you use ReiserFS3.x you can regard it as stable, if I'm not
mistaken. I don't know about file size limits for ReiserFS, but I
recommend FSFS repositories over Berkley DB. This way you have a file
for EACH revision of the repository. I doubt, that a single revision
will be bigger than the maximum file size of your filesystem. BTW:
FSFS is now the standard repository type for newer versions of
Subversion.
