Feature added by: Stefan Brüns (StefanBruens) Feature #320894, revision 1 Title: osc should download files from linked repositories only once Buildservice: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Stefan Brüns (stefanbruens) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Typically all or most files in linked repositories are identical. By default osc downloads linked repositories in expanded state, downloading the same files again and again. The project meta data already contains the md5sums and file sizes of the source files. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Duplicate downloads waste bandwidth on the build service and developer time on checkouts. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/320894
