cvsup

[Matthew Dillon]

   People shouldn't worry about server side overhead all that much.  Cpu
   cycles are cheap and the cvs tree is completely cached in memory anyway.
   And the only effect that extra network bandwidth has is that it takes
   a little longer to run the operation.  Now, granted, we don't want people
   to be downloading a whole copy's worth of network bandwidth every day,
   but rsync is close enough that I just don't care.

   One of the original reasons for using cvsup was so people could maintain
   local branches of the repository.  I don't think people do this much
   anymore, if they do it all.  Disk space is so cheap these days that
   keeping a master sync copy and a separate one for local work is not a big
   deal.
