In my testing of libsvn_wc last week, I found that commits
of very
large files aren't interruptable. In my tests, it could take
up to 5
minutes before a ^C was acted upon.

Progress reporting as well as interruptability can be
addressed/solved
by adding a progress notifier to
svn_txdelta_transmit_deltas.

Comments? File as enhancement issue?

bye,


Erik.

Being able to reliably cancel operations as well as receive
accurate 
progress information are both important features that any
GUI client such 
as Subclipse or TortoiseSVN need.  So I would very much like
to see this 
sort of enhancement implemented someday.

So +1 from me on filing an issue.

Thanks

Mark
