Since this is where almost > all Emacs history is located it won't make much difference size wise. Is it correct that main or master is the same thing as the Emacs trunk branch? If so, I wonder why the git repository containing just this is so large: my bzr Emacs repository only contains the trunk (as a bound branch), several local branches of it, and the emacs-24 branch; the .bzr/ directory of the repository, containing all the history, is only 428 MiB, not 1.1 GiB (the trunk directory itself contains an additional 129.3 MiB, but the total is still half the size of the git repo). Why is the git repository so much larger than the bzr repository? Steve Berman
