--- Comment #5 from Dan Scott <dan at coffeecode.net> ---
M. Tompsett - I didn't forget to account for data size. As far as I know nobody
recommends running Koha from git for production purposes; my assumption is that
someone running from git is using it for development purposes. In which case
most developers are going to be using a small data set, or will provision
according to the size of their data.

What I'm trying to establish is a reasonable minimal baseline.

After "git clean -f" and "git reset --hard HEAD", "du -hs kohaclone" shows me a
disk space usage of 1.9 GB.

After running "perl Makefile.PL" and "make", "du -hs kohaclone" shows me a disk
space usage of 2.3 GB.

After running "make install", "du -hs /home/koha/koha-dev" then shows me disk
space usage of 401 MB.

Thus, a minimal git install requires 2.7 GB of free space... rounding up to the
3 GB I recommended in my original patch seems reasonable.

On my 6.0 GB Ubuntu VM, here's what "df -h" shows after a minimal install and a
load of approximately 1000 MARC records:

Filesystem                 Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/koha--vg-root  5.6G  4.9G  413M  93% /
udev                       992M  4.0K  992M   1% /dev
tmpfs                      401M  276K  401M   1% /run
none                       5.0M     0  5.0M   0% /run/lock
none                      1002M     0 1002M   0% /run/shm
/dev/vda1                  228M   78M  138M  37% /boot

I stand by my original patch as-is, as it uses the terms "at least" to target
the minimal case for a git install and for the minimal VM size.
