CVS Badwidth Issues?

by Ron Yacketta · in Torque Game Engine · 04/10/2002 (4:52 pm) · 4 replies

I noticed a possible issue with CVS and its bandwidth detection (maybe).

From work this afternoon around 2pm EST, I nabed a copy of torque/example from the HEAD tag.

All went well, I get home this evening and now I am unable to do jack with the TGE CVS. I get an error regarding bandwidth.

So I ask, how in the blazes does a co of the example directory kill my bw for the day?

example now has realm wars and fps in it, so its total size is about 24mb. The checkout might have just pushed you over the limit.

ICK!

Gone are the days I could maintaina copy of TGE on both my work laptop and my home PC. I can see how I would have gone overboard IF I were to nab the entire HEAD tree, but to nab a small part of it?

*sigh*

Oh well, time to head back to the drawing board and figiure a way to keep both machines up to date

Its not that big a deal...its mostly a one-time cost. Once the data files are on your PC, cvs update won't download them again unless somebody updates the art in the repository which probably won't happen too often.

We will see now wont we ;)
I have this stinking feeling that this will happen again
in the morning when I go and update the same example directory, and when I get home I will be screwed.....
