== Considerations over downloading FGData using BitTorrent == | |||
Some considerations of [[User:Callahanp|Callahanp]] moved from [[Talk:Downloading fgdata using bittorrent]]: | |||
* BitTorrent is a solution or partial solution to hosting service resource issues. | |||
* There may be other solutions. | |||
===Fgdata facts as of 28-Apr-2016=== | |||
'''1. the current fgdata can be downloaded without history using git: | |||
''' | |||
git clone --depth=1 git://git.code.sf.net/p/flightgear/fgdata/ | |||
Cloning into 'fgdata'... | |||
remote: Counting objects: 10965, done. | |||
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (8184/8184), done. | |||
remote: Total 10965 (delta 2327), reused 9311 (delta 1918) | |||
Receiving objects: 100% (10965/10965), 1.07 GiB | 6.92 MiB/s, done. | |||
Resolving deltas: 100% (2327/2327), done. | |||
Checking connectivity... done. | |||
Checking out files: 100% (10360/10360), done. | |||
* this 1.07 GiB download results in 2.9GiB fgdata directory | |||
* the size of the .git file in the fgdata direcory is 1.2 GiB | |||
* the checked out files in fgdata total 1.7 gb | |||
* change history is not included in the local .git file because of the depth=1 option | |||
'''2. the current fgdata can be downloaded with history using git: | |||
''' | |||
git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/flightgear/fgdata/ | |||
flightgear/fgdata/Cloning into 'fgdata'... | |||
remote: Counting objects: 52568, done. | |||
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (23896/23896), done. | |||
remote: Total 52568 (delta 29439), reused 49244 (delta 27278) | |||
Receiving objects: 100% (52568/52568), 1.95 GiB | 6.92 MiB/s, done. | |||
Resolving deltas: 100% (29439/29439), done. | |||
Checking connectivity... done. | |||
Checking out files: 100% (10360/10360), done. | |||
* this 1.95 GiB download results in 3.8 GiB fgdata directory | |||
* the size of the .git file in the fgdata direcory is 2.1 GiB | |||
* the checked out files in fgdata total 1.7 gb, just as before | |||
* change history is included in the local .git in this case | |||
this results in a 2.1 GB .git file in the fgdata directory. fgdata's total is then 3.8 GB | |||
===Bittorrent for flightgear data.=== | |||
* May or may not be needed at this point in time | |||
* Should be discussed on the development mailing list before proceeding | |||
* Would best be accomplished by or in cooperation with the developers | |||
===Possible flightgear server options (quite stale) === | |||

I can offer a server located in Germany with 10 TB of traffic | |||
per month and plenty of disk space, both of which I hardly use | |||
anything. | |||

===Routines and services we'll need to build or install=== | |||
# Create .git bundles from .git or .gits | |||
# Monitor bittorrent and other services and providers hosting fgdata bundles | |||
# Maintain torrent data on the servers | |||
# Ensure compliance with server bandwidth limitations | |||
