>Worry about scaling your own infrastructure Does git have scaling issues? I know git manages the 60mil+ SLOC of the Linux Kernel, that's what it was designed for. I don't see how even medium/large size enterprise will have difficulty. Or am I missing something?

  As I understand, this is precisely why companies like Plastic SCM exist: to service game dev and other projects that need to manage large assets.

    Yep. We use Perforce in work, and from my experience, most other game dev's do too.

Very few organizations use git the way the linux kernel project does. Most organizations use github, gitlab, etc, which definitely have had scaling issues.

  You might be surprised to learn the Linux Kernel is on Github: https://github.com/torvalds/linux https://github.com/torvalds/linux

    I don't think thats their sole central hosted copy of the repo though. I believe they use git.kernel.org
