svn up --set-depth exclude takes very long time
Hi,
having a very big working copy (>100GB) want to exclude “folderA” (~2.5GB) from this wc via “svn up –set-depth exclude folderA” .
This command takes very long time – did not finish after 2 days when doing this on a NFS mounted dir.
Even when the wc is on a local disk, it takes very long time (>1day).
I am using SVN 1.7.14.
Why does the “exclude” take such a long time and what can be done to make it faster ?

Hi Pavel,
I will try to update the SVN version, but it is not as easy, as we are using the RHEL7 release and its default repos, due to our company policies.
I guess it is much, much faster to checkout the repository again, than “excluding” and existing folder from the working copy.
Can you briefly elaborate “why” this exclude takes sooo long ?
Does it do special things on each file ?
Thanks
Holger

Note that SVN 1.7.x is not supported and you should plan an upgrade to the latest SVN 1.10.x (LTS) or SVN 1.11.x (regular time-based release) builds.

I guess that it's not the only operation that is slow on the network share, right? Please, upgrade your SVN client and try the same operation with the exclusive locking option[1]. See SVNBook 1.8 about exclusive-locking runtime configuration option[2].
Here is an example:
[[[
svn update --config-option config:working-copy:exclusive-locking=true –set-depth exclude folderA
]]]
