 &gt;I think current binrepos is not really perfect :
 &gt;
 &gt;- Using separate repository for each release require having multiple
 &gt;  copies of some files
 &gt;- removing old binary files from history is easier than before, but
 &gt;  still not very simple
 &gt;- Using the same directory structure as packages (with current and
 &gt;  releases directories) in binrepos is not very usefull I think
 &gt;
 &gt;So I think we could replace binrepos svn with something like this :
 &gt;
 &gt;- on valstar, a script to upload a file, accessed by ssh using &quot;mgarepo
 &gt;  upload&quot;. The script saves all files in the same directory, using
 &gt;  sha1sum for the filename.

Having a single directory tree for all versions instead of separating
releases in different trees is better; that's what Debian does. One of
the advantages is that it allows a single file to be part of more than
one release and avoids a lot of hardlinking, which is error-prone.

I'm not sure that this is what you're suggesting, sorry if not. I
don't follow in detail the distro-specific issues.
