I also might suggest that a future version have a more graceful way of failing when disk space runs out. We do use AFS and it was actually a lack of disk quota, so that might have contributed. (however using BitKeeper on shared AFS volumes has been nearly problem free for the last 1.5 years, and we do _not_ use a server and instead push/pull directly from shared directories) --Mike
