How many source code bases are larger and have more authors than the linux kernel?

  I know that Facebook had a number of issues trying to migrate to git. Many of these issues came from storing big blobs and mountains of code. There are code bases bigger than the linux kernel, they are often proprietary though.

    Microsoft's come to mind.

    I recall Facebook's git issue revolving around the fact they store all their code in one repo, too.

      You mean like Linux?
