I think maybe there was also a limitation on the (repo-replication-over-email?) mechanism that we used to use? That rings a very faint bell for me for some reason, even though I'm pretty sure it was dead long before I got my bit.

If you or others have a reason to prefer having uuencoded files in the src tree I'll happily revert. I was aware only of CVS limitations as a reason for uuencoding. We have many binary files in the tree already (e.g. GIF PNG and JPEG images, ELF and PE32 binaries, Berkeley DB files, and various compressed formats). I count 430 uuencoded files in the tree, with 328 of those coming from libarchive and 64 from sys/*/dev/ _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-head To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
