I don't think we should harm so many build processes to save another 100 MB, but we should concentrate on getting factory deltas working. This would still mean 1225 packages to upgrade, but the download size would be around 50MB (and it would eat up more CPU).
Can someone write down what is needed to make this happen? This could help people give it a try.
https://features.opensuse.org/303532 was opened more than two years ago, and based on this, the only thing I can tell is that we would need to adapt backend parts. Which doesn't really tell me a lot ;-)
I don't think there has been put enough thought into this yet ;( What I would do: - change the build script to not only do the build-compare, but also create the delta rpm if the rpms are different. This gives you build-by-build deltas. - collect these delta rpms into a seperate repo, where they are collected and wiped purely by age whenever the :repo is going to be published - change the publisher to create a subdirectory in the normal repo with these deltas - support a flag in the project to enable or disable the use of delta rpms. I don't think we want them generally as they will eat up a lot of space.
