Bitkeeper,

I would like to change the compression value of an already made
repository.  I recently made a large number of changes to an uncompressed
repository and now the repository has grown significantly.  Specifically,
I noticed that the <repo>/BitKeeper/deleted dir is extremely large.

I know the compression value is maintained in the
<repo>/BitKeeper/etc/config file, but I'm sure directly modifying the file
is probably not a good idea.  Is there some easy way to compress files in
an existing repository?  Do I have to create and import a new repository?

Thanks,

Brad
