[Frugalware-devel] moving big files to /other/sources?

hi,

currently sometimes we just add our sources to darcs, sometimes we put
sources to /other/sources. i think it would be good to set a limit: if
something is too big, then it would have to be added to /other/sources

currently if we set this limit to 100k, then we would need to move the
following files from darcs:

$ sh bigcheck.sh
source/apps/ash/ash-0.4.0.diff
source/network/apache/mkcert.tar.gz
source/base-extra/kernel-fwlive/squashfs3.2-patch
source/devel-extra/dietlibc/libm.patch
source/locale-extra/bibletime-i18n/hu.po
source/xapps-extra/qtparted/cvs_003.diff

i think neither of these really need version control and it would be
good to move them to ftp and remove from darcs

opinions?

ps: Gentoo uses a limit of 50k but that would affect for example kernel
configs (which really need version control), so that would be too strict
imho

thanks,
VMiklos
