Cloning is expensive especially on large repositories. We could use a new function which will retrieve only the concerned revision:
| |
| priority | important |
|---|---|
| type | enhancement |
| appeared in | <not specified> |
| done in | 2.1.0 |
| load | 2.000 |
| load left | 2.000 |
| closed by | <not specified> |

- It's only as fast if hardlinking are avaible. If the repository are on another partition than the apycot execution, cloning will be much slower
- hg archive contains a .hg_archival.txt file with the following data:
(add comment)the pb is that archive needs a local repository
We may cache all remote repositories in a dedicated space. It would fix the "local_repository relation issue" at the same time.
