Hi Joshua,

sounds like you have everything in a single .git. Split up the massive
repository to separate smaller .git repositories.

For example, Android code base is quite big. They use the repo tool to manage a
number of separate .git repositories as one big aggregate "repository".

Cheers,
Slinky
