We have customers who use SVN to store iso images. We also have customers
with WC size >40GB, excluding the size of .svn directory. I think, using
earlier Apache releases (>2.2), we can not upload files > 2GB, as per
limitation is concerned. Eventually it is fixed in Apache 2.2 wherein I
think, we can upload upto 8GB. In summary, we've seen SVN users storing
large binary files without any issues.
Thank you!
