I am using umbraco 4.7 and the newest version of courier. If i transfer only one item (i changed the item name) it takes about 10 minutes until this item is transfered.
Can somebody please tell me how i can speed up this?
It is just one content item
This should be done in less then 2 seconds I think
Well, its not always as simple, Courier collects a ton of information about this item, to ensure that all items it depends on, is in place before actually moving it.
So it gets dll's, doctypes, templates, etc, and starts tranfering them, so incase something is missing during the install, it will have them available.
So even though it's just one item, there might be a bug chunk of stuff associated with it.
I assume you are using the right-click menu, to get an overview of what it is actually moving over, look in /app_data/courier/reivisons/ and then the latest folder there (they are named with guids)
As part of the next version we are looking into the common "false positives" that triggers way too much to be transfered, which should slim down these transfers
Ok I understand. Now ive also another question. We are using svn for source control. The problem is that the /app_data/courier/ folder is getting bigger and bigger and i dont want to transfer this to svn. What is the best way to handle this? can i deny the courier folder from sending to SVN?
Also i do not exactly understand what the Revision Folder in the Courier section stands for. I transfered some items and /app_data/courier/ is showing me different revisions but the revision folder in the umbraco backent does not show any item

Hi Dominik
Basicly all the folders in the /revisions folder represents a set of changes you've transfered, so courier keeps a log of the items
You can safely remove any folder that starts with __ as that is ignored by courier UI anyway
Hi Per,
You said that the revision folder represents a set of changes i have transfered.
But i only changed a title but the revision folder includes also css, usercontrols etc. Is this necessary? if i change only one item?
Can courier check if the other files have changed and only transfer them if there are changes?
is working on a reply...
