A GNU Arch Handbook

2.4 Set Up a Revision Library

(prev) (next chapter)

Local Caching

Arch's best performance is obtained by allocating for it substantial on-disk storage for a revision library.

Note: It is not required that you create a revision library; it is usually a performance-win (trading disk-space for speed) to do so.

Revision libraries are created by commands such as:

    % mkdir ~/Revlib
    % tla my-revision-library ~/Revlib
    % tla library-config --greedy --sparse ~/Revlib

  

Commands Discussed

    % tla my-revision-library -H
    % tla library-config -H
