Comment on GitHub-like WebUI for Subversion

I don’t get it, who in their right mind hosts development stuff on a Windows clunker?

Same question, but Subversion. Switch to git. Import your repos with git-svn.

I’m already using Git, thus my experience with Gitea. I am well versed with svndumpfilter and git-svn to extract and migrate individual Subversion repositories to Git.

I’m not only hosting code, but I have several projects involving large binary files with binary changes. Git’s delta compression algorithm for binary files is so-so. Git LFS is just outsourcing the problem. Even cloning with –depth 1 --single-branch gives me abysmal performance compared to Subversion.

So I’m still looking for a nice WebUI to make my life with the Subversion repositories I have easier.

  That’s interesting, okay. Is svn doing compression of those binaries for you?
  
  Not to say “you’re holding it wrong”, but I’m curious about your workflow here. You clone these binaries every time you come back to a project?
