Utterly irrelevant. A partial checkout won't make git noticeably faster, as it is pretty darn fast already. Believe me. A truncated history might save you up to 150MB, also totally not worth the effort, especially because then your custom git repo has different hashes and fetching/merging other peoples branches becomes impossible.

Furthermore, the point with git is to have multiple branches in your workspace and switch between them (again, this is frigging fast). I was juggling 8-10 branches at one time and have never had the need to create a second workspace ('git stash' being the keyword here).

Please have a look at http://wiki.freebsd.org/GitWorkflow and try it out!

I've been working out of git for the past 15 months:

https://www.gitorious.org/~kmm/freebsd/kmm-sandbox

I'm afraid that due to time and bandwidth constraints the size of the initial repository is indeed relevant for many of us.

So the full history for head clocks in around 570MB whereas a history from r225000 onward will take up 164MB of space. I really think that this factor <4x is something people should just accept. It is a one-time thing anyway, and if they managed to download an ISO image of FreeBSD or have Xorg and Firefox installed, they had to download more than that before.

Funnily enough, people with time and bandwidth constraints are those that profit from git the most! :)

But noone's forcing anybody to use git, so if svn works better for those folk (I can hardly imagine how), just continue using it. It's not going away.

Cheers, Uli
