[14:22:59] <dstufft> apollo13: some file systems have a limit on how many sub directories inside of a directory, so the subdirs are to distribute the cache amongst many directories to get around common limits
[14:23:31] <apollo13> but the last one seems kinda redundant if there is only one file in it?
[14:24:11] <dstufft> there might be more than one file in it
[14:24:27] <dstufft> the hash is derrives from the link of the sdist
[14:24:51] <apollo13> ah so building for different py versions would give more than one file?
[14:39:26] <ronny> dstufft: btw, any oppinion on more tightly integrating devpi and pip
[14:39:49] <dstufft> depends on what you mean by more tightly integrating them
[14:40:38] <ronny> dstufft: sharing caches locally, and having some way to upload and share wheels/precompiled wheels within a company
[14:42:10] <ronny> (currently using devpi means storing all packages in use twice or trice, once in devpi, once in pip cache, and sometimes once in pip cache from other locations
[15:45:42] <pjdelport> ronny: A quick hack presents itself: maybe just have a tool to hardlink identical files together, and run it over all three caches?
[20:42:33] <ronny> pjdelport: not really interesting
