Best method to pull *fast*?

[Torsten Bronger]

Hallöchen!

I stay up-to-date with CVS Emacs by pulling from the inofficial
Bzaar branch.  I don't contribute, I just want to synchronise
unidirectionally.  However, an ordinary "pull" generates 140 times
more network traffic than bytes changed on the disk.  In one case, I
had a diff which was 500 kB big, but "bzr pull" reported to have
transmitted 80 MB.

Using a lightweight checkout and "update" didn't change much,
however, I haven't really benchmarked it yet.

Is there a faster way?

Tschö,
Torsten.
