Source Control - Checking in binaries

0
Fayyaz Dungersi (6●3●3) | asked Apr 20 '09, 1:26 p.m.
Hi,

I have a question regarding delivering binaries into the source control component of RTC.

When checking in a binary, is the binary updated incrementally, meaning that are the changes only being updated, or is it a full update of the binary?

Thanks in advance.

We delta compress (save only the updates) large content if it will
reduce the footprint. If delta compression does not produce a great
savings, then we compress using GZip instead to reduce the footprint of
the blob in the database.

Hope this helps,
