IMHO that's too much. Even 100K would be.
I agree, this is a _lot_ of code for what? It's not like we can make heads or tails of the diffs for fonts anyway. I agree that is good not to have binary files in CVS, but these are binary files that are cross platform, need not be rebuild by users, etc.
Nice to hear another voice of reason in all this mess. I hope that sfd2ttf and all the related *#$%!@ will be gone from wine as soon as possible.
Somebody has finally spent the time needed to:
1) Eliminate a dependency (good!)
2) Keep binaries out of the GIT/CVS tree (good!)
3) (Hopefully) keep Alexandre happy in the process. (good!)
The code is still a bit big, but I'm confident that can be addressed.
If binaries were going into the source tree, then it would have started with the icon/bitmap resource. Anybody remember who spent "tens of precious developer hours" to come up with bin2res so we didn't need to checkin binaries then?
