If you wish to try out a recent Subversion on some sizable source there's a mirror of the maint and bleadperl Perforce repositories here. http://svn.clkao.org/svnweb/perl You can pull them out using svn://svn.clkao.org/perl Subversion has improved a lot. I'm using it now. If you do try it I recommend going straight to 1.1.1 and using fsfs based repositories. Keep in mind that SVN is slower on checkouts than CVS. However diff is a purely local operation. And if you're using something like SVK network traffic isn't much of an issue after all after the initial mirror. -- Michael G Schwern [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pobox.com/~schwern/ Now we come to that part of the email you've all been waiting for--the end.
