There is an cvs admin command to delete specific revisions of a file: cvs admin -o <range of revisions to delete> filename But the command cannot remove revisions with branches on them. Dangerous but if done in a copy of your repository then you could experiment a bit and see how it works. /Bo -----Original Message----- From: cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org [mailto:cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org]On Behalf Of Pedja Supurovic Sent: den 9 november 2005 10:44 To: cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook Subject: [cvsnt] How to deal with too large CVS database? Our source got far too big so we are looking for an solution to deal with it. We had an idea to lock currnet repository, make it read only and create new one with packed database which contains only the last versions of each file in source. That would allow us to access previous versions but continue development with fresh, and small source database. We cannot find way to achieve this but preserve file version numbers within source (if we create new repository and put new source in it, file version numbers are reset). Is it possible at all to preserv version numbers or pack database by keeping only the last version of each file within source?
