Are they able to see SVN lock files or just the repo check out? Whole repo checkout isn’t inherently suspicious but isn’t *not* suspicious either

I think the suspiciousness relates to downloading the whole repo within a certain period of time of leaving the company. I'm more curious about Google's forensic claims that he had copied large #'s of docs to an external USB drive. That seems more suspicious.

It was off a company laptop that had a bunch of monitoring software including something called bit9 that monitored physical outputs and sent logs back to google remotely

Depends on what the repo is for I guess but yes absolutely
-
Also depends on size. I don't know how to download part of a repo, but i know that there are some codebases (like windows) that don't fit on a normal computer. In my career as a developer, I've always downloaded the whole repo.
-
There probably isn’t just one gigantic Windows repo though, right? I would guess they’d break it up into pieces so you would still check out the entirety of whatever repo you are working on

The main repo is ~300gb, Microsoft actually made a lot of scalability improvements in git while preparing for moving to githttps://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2017/02/microsoft-hosts-the-windows-source-in-a-monstrous-300gb-git-repository/ …

it's pretty cool i guess if the current year is 2004

Remember when it replaced CVS and made things "atomic" [sic]? It was a breakthrough :D
-
i was born in 1993 so i cannot say i recall this
-
Hah I'm '91 but I think I used CVS super early on a hobby project and it promptly ate it, basically. Fond memories!

Subversion seemed pretty nice back when the alternative was CVS.
-
I feel like the biggest problem with Subversion is it never quite achieved what it set out to achieve. If you look at the early history of the project, they totally meant to do all the stuff git and hg do ... eventually.

Is there actually a good reason for any codebase to be in svn rather than got except that it's legacy and perhaps too hard to migrate? I used svn for a while "back in the day." Nothing compares to git imho.
-
svn model arguably can work better when working with lots of large binary files. Doesn't download entire history, can check out a portion of a repository
-
Agree it's probably just a legacy thing though rather than a carefully considered decision. Migrating between VCSes can be a real pain

Also, is it dorky to bring your whole svn repo to Burning Man?

This is so weirdly hard to write (it's hard to distinguish from unsolicited random bullshit/nerdery), but SVN here may mean something very specific that bears on the case. I've set up these servers for electronics designers, they are the only people in 20-teens who use it. When..
-
I saw the SVN detail, I was pretty sure Levandowski was trying to download Altium files, which you would only do if you want specific circuit design details and history. Practically no other software uses this VCS any more.
-
Idk if it's unsolicited nerdery but I found it an informative opinion!
