Having each in a separate directory would mean about 20GB of disk space, moreover making cross-branch diffs terribly slow reading+comparing many GBs of data. I hope you do not recommend using CVS branches (I used those...). It is true I do not know SVN/BZR/etc. branching feasibility. And when you commit GIT->CVS it took me for the last 12-parts patchser over an hour, moreover making a mistake breaking the repository by forgotten files: http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2011-10/msg00243.html Add forgotten gdb/dwarf2-frame-tailcall.c. Add forgotten gdb/dwarf2-frame-tailcall.h. It could be one just `git merge' and `git push'. > for testsuite at least: > dejagnu gcc-gfortran gcc-java gcc-objc prelink fpc gcc-gnat glibc-static valgrind > > And tcl. (This is a dependency of dejagnu.) Thanks, Jan
