...and, I think that powerful and cheaper technology should not excuse
careless software development. I don't want to keep tons of garbage
just because of high-capacity-cheap-disks - or - stop a service

and importing hundreds GBs of data). Ok, got it, I will spend my
freetime looking on how develop "svn obliterate" ^^
