'''track large binary files
|
|
|
|
|
|
Large binary files tend to be not very compressible, not very "diffable", and
|
|
|
not at all mergeable. Such files are not handled well by Mercurial\'s storage
|
|
|
format (revlog), which is based on compressed binary deltas. largefiles solves
|
|
|
this problem by adding a centralized client-server layer on top of Mercurial:
|
|
|
largefiles live in a *central store* out on the network somewhere, and you only
|
|
|
fetch the ones that you need when you need them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
largefiles works by maintaining a *standin* in .hglf/ for each largefile. The
|
|
|
standins are small (41 bytes: an SHA-1 hash plus newline) and are tracked by
|
|
|
Mercurial. Largefile revisions are identified by the SHA-1 hash of their
|
|
|
contents, which is written to the standin. largefiles uses that revision ID to
|
|
|
get/put largefile revisions from/to the central store.
|
|
|
|
|
|
A complete tutorial for using lfiles is included in ``usage.txt`` in the lfiles
|
|
|
source distribution. See
