Can I use compression with bzr+ssh?
I am helping a colleague convert to Bazaar, and he has a very large bazaar repository, several hundred megabytes. Can you help me answer them? I have already suggested creating a tarball on the remote machine and downloading that to prime the local repository (some of the developers are in an area that has expensive internet connection).
