GIT is still evolving and certainly needs work to cope with environments and datasets that were never tested before.

GIT might not be right for it just yet, but if you could let us rsync your converted repo to play with that might help us work on proper fixes for that kind of repo. > Martin has also brought up the problem with needing a partial clone so > that everyone doesn't have to bring down the entire repository. If it can be repacked into a single pack that size might get much smaller too.
