thanks for your info, so I have the opinion that the git is much faster and if contextgarden has one, is it possible to add a git for the minimals there or who does one have to ask for it.
mojca as she's in charge of the minimals
Hi Hans, Hi Mojca, hi list,
finished today an ebuild for funtoo, should also work under gentoo if interested for an add to the contextgarden wiki let me know.
And Mojca, would be nice to get direct contact to you for some infos concerning the build process of context-minimals. Just reply to my mail- address from which I post.
I'm sorry. I'm here and I'm reading, it's just that I didn't yet figure out what to reply to you about git. About the speed of git: it's indeed very fast, but you need to bear in mind that you would need to download the whole archive of every single luatex binary version (OK, compressed, but still). If we start shipping the minimals as git repository (but then we would ship it as a whole) it would be best to just put a cron job on contextgarden.net that would update on regular bases. Volunteer? Mojca PS: rsync also updates "only changed files" which was still better than updating the whole zip, though it does update the whole files, not just the differences between files. It also has an advantage that one would then easily switch back in time locally if something goes wrong.
