The user also checked out a working copy of the repository and the
size reported by TortoiseSVN after checkout was 1751.35 MB. I'm
running an export right now and will check the size when done. I
don't have access to the original directory structure to compare,
though I confirmed via a remote control session that the size was > 7
GB and that the top level directory structure matches what was
imported. I'll have the user send me a recursive listing of files
from the original directory so I can compare with svn log output.
