Should this document be revised to reflect the current reality?
No, the document is correct. Chad should be revised to reflect
reality. :-)
Seriously, I very, very much prefer to have the /mit/sipb/src untarred
for a lot of reasons, most of which are fairly obvious.
When the volume fills up, the first thing to do is:
find /mit/sipb/src -name '*.o' -print
and run "make clean" in the appropriate directories. (Build trees
should never be left in /mit/sipb/src. In fact, they should never be
put there in the first place. If someone feels compelled to build
over a networked filesystem instead of on the local disk, he or she
should use /mit/sipb/build.)
Second, look for duplicate source trees and ask the appropriate people
to get rid of them.
Third, bump the quota. (If the quota gets too big, we can consider
splitting the volume, although I'd like to avoid that if possible.)
Have a nice day,
Sal.
