    <p>I can't comment on the reliability or connection issues that might exist when committing a large file across the network (one referenced post hinted at problems). But here is a little bit of empirical data that you may find useful (or not).</p> <p>I have been doing some tests today studying disk seek times and so had a reasonably good test case readily at hand. I found your question interesting, so I did a quick test with the files I am using/modifying. I created a local Subversion repository and added two binary files to it (sizes shown below) and then committed the files a couple of times after changes were made to them. The smaller binary file (.85 GB) simply had data added to the end of it each time. The larger file (2.2GB) contains data representing b-trees consisting of "random" integer data. The updates to that file between commits involved adding approximately 4000 new random values, so it would have modified nodes spread somewhat evenly throughout the file.</p> <p>Here are the original file sizes along with the size/count of all files in the local subversion repository after the commit:</p> <pre><code>file1 851,271,675 file2 2,205,798,400 1,892,512,437 bytes in 32 files and 32 dirs </code></pre> <p>After the second commit:</p> <pre><code>file1 851,287,155 file2 2,207,569,920 1,894,211,472 bytes in 34 files and 32 dirs </code></pre> <p>After the third commit:</p> <pre><code>file1 851,308,845 file2 2,210,174,976 1,897,510,389 bytes in 36 files and 32 dirs </code></pre> <p>The commits were somewhat lengthy. I didn't pay close attention because I was doing other work, but I think each one took maybe 10 minutes. To check out a specific revision took about 5 minutes. I would not make a recommendation one way or other based on my results. All I can say is that it seemed to work fine and no errors occurred. And the file differencing seemed to work well (for these files). </p>
