I had delayed looking at the new generated-by-Perl IXIN stuff because
of CVS antipathy. Now theres no more excuse. :-D
It seems i spoke too soon. The "svn co" command consumed all disk space
and memory on my computer before exiting failurefully. As a workaround,
i installed git-svn and did:
$ mkdir texinfo
$ cd texinfo
$ git svn init svn://svn.savannah.gnu.org/texinfo
$ git svn fetch
which required about seven hours and five manual restarts to complete
(interruptions were due to connection timeout), w/ a 1.3GiB footprint.
So, now i see a bunch of directories many of them named "texinfo".
Which one contains the IXIN hacking?
