Our larger files are near 800MB and the total checked out repo size is about 3 GB the repo size in SVN is more like 20-30GB, if we could prune the history prior to MR, we could get these sizes down considerably. This binary repo is really for our super project build.  From what I have read and learned, this is not a good fit for the GIT tool. Have there been performance improvements lately? Some of the posts I have read have been quite old?

check this out:

It's a modified git system that's purpose-built for large files.
That's just about all the sensible information I can share you with
you.
