haven't tested it further. Space consumption is 24MB (58MB for full repo). Not really impressive, but if one truely cares about disk space, he/she should also use shallow clone.58 MB for full repo? What are you counting? For me, I get 25M:
My number 24MB was incorrect because process_tree() leaked too many blobs. It should have been 16MB. Anyway I have updated my series and put it here (to spam git mailing less) http://repo.or.cz/w/git/pclouds.git/shortlog/refs/heads/subtree (caveat: constantly rebased tree) if you still want to play with it. For number lovers, fetching only Documentation from linux-2.6.git took 94MB (full repo 366MB). Yeah Documentation was an easy target. -- Duy
