it doesn't, but in your case of using Git as storage it doesn't really matter. A few extra seconds in cloning the repo are meaningless.
Having said that, have you tried Git LFS ? Shallow clones ?
- majewsky 7y agoGit LFS requires a canonical location on a server, which this repo does not have. It's just cloned between machines that I use. And I don't see why I would use shallow clones for a document repo where the contents are all append-only. I don't win anything since nearly all the blobs are in the most recent commit anyway.
