After comparing two dumps of the same repository, one obtained with Subversion 1.6.17 and one obtained with 1.7.5, both with --incremental --deltas (both from revision 0, but not with the same upper revision), I've noticed two changes:
1. The properties are reordered (that was expected after the change in libapr). 2. Text content is sometimes larger with 1.7.5. For instance: Text-delta: true Text-delta-base-md5: 6c17738e070af8b69a4814ddc7484f69 Text-delta-base-sha1: ccbb2233b14ee51093a0c0bd08bc26ba1e88ee46 -Text-content-length: 7307 +Text-content-length: 7336 Text-content-md5: 6afa974df763d6384836d45ee610e77c Text-content-sha1: 9c65c4ab034d21fcf355ff4bc0b1a0c2d12f2fb1 -Content-length: 7307 +Content-length: 7336 Text-delta: true Text-delta-base-md5: 26671cc408dcbaedd8dfe5accdf09b7c Text-delta-base-sha1: 710a2c42023a8790ab7a3ffc174d56c80f8786ff -Text-content-length: 222 +Text-content-length: 249 Text-content-md5: fd1b691b409a21a510a7fc8820e6a2f6 Text-content-sha1: 5e84be2aba06eae484a768aaead6daee7200d291 -Content-length: 222 +Content-length: 249 Text-delta: true Text-delta-base-md5: aaa49b3db570ca4b32159a12b6e709ba Text-delta-base-sha1: 109c4b08e10c89d19fad502438e25a2bb741d355 -Text-content-length: 250 +Text-content-length: 360 Text-content-md5: 09b80c313b0acfb236cddb3136809f55 Text-content-sha1: 6a099150f1a77f737b31820da9e5430bb2db5bac -Content-length: 250 +Content-length: 360 and so on. Is there any reason? Has a bug been introduced? While I could except the opposite after an improvement of the compression algorithm, a bigger dump is rather surprising. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
