Re: Git is not scalable with too many refs/*

An update, I bisected it down to this commit:

  88a21979c5717e3f37b9691e90b6dbf2b94c751a

   fetch/pull: recurse into submodules when necessary

Since this can be disabled with the --no-recurse-submodules switch, I tried
that and indeed, even with the latest 1.7.7rc it becomes fast (~8mins)
again. The strange part about this is that the repository does not have any
submodules. Anyway, I hope that this can be useful to others since it is a
workaround which speed things up enormously. Let me know if you have any
other tests that you want me to perform,
