csync2 uses a fixed temp file location (/tmp/)
if /tmp/ is too small, too bad.

may help.

I did not yet apply it to svn,
because I'd like to change it to handle temp files
in a similar way rsync handles them:
create beneath the target file, then just move them over, instead of the
current csync2 behaviour of first creating the tempfile, then truncating
the original, and overwriting it.
