<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>The SVN is used for programming projects done by
groups, so the quota is a group quota per project.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>My users are students at the Technion (computer
science).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I believe it is a good thing that users knows that
they have limited resources, this way they use them wisely.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>If all groups are near the quota limits, I know it
is a real need, if one group uses 500 & the rest are below 100, I know
something is odd here and with the instruction of the course I decide what to
do.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>The problem of SVN is that there is no easy way to
erase un-needed data. The only way I know of is to:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>- create a full backup of the repository while
filtering unwanted data</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>- erase the entire repository</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>- import the data from the filtered backup. I must
admit that I prefer to give more disk space then to do this work.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr>If SVN quota is group-wise, and if it's on a dedicated
filesystem, and if you can't remove data from the SVN (due to its nature,
anyhow, the users cant remove data), and if they ask for more space and you
grant them that, may I ask what is the point in setting up quota for that
specific storage?
