| | #REDIRECT [[Talk:FlightGear Git: data developers#Considerations over downloading FGData using BitTorrent]] |
| | |
| ==Bittorrent assumptions==
| |
| | |
| * bittorent 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/
| |
| | |

| |
| 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) ==

| |
| | |
| # Create .git bundles from .git or .gits | |
| # Monitor bittorrent and other services and providers hosting fgdata bundles
| |
| # Maintain torrent data on the servers
