That is a very large rcs file! We have a solution to this problem (we no longer need the 7 MiB index.html \o/), but now I can neither update nor remove index.html: CVS fails out with “cannot allocate memory” on the server side. Could you nuke it somehow? (History doesn’t matter.) Also, it might be related, but updates to one the Guix web site CSS files fail to lead to an update on the web site. That is: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- $ cvs ci -m Update. static/base/css cvs commit: Examining static/base/css /web/guix/guix/static/base/css/packages.css,v <-- static/base/css/packages.css new revision: 1.5; previous revision: 1.4 Triggering webpages update... --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- This works fine, but several hours later: wget -q -O - http://www.gnu.org/software/guix/static/base/css/packages.css |head … is still showing me the old version of the file. Ideas? Thanks, Ludo’.
