I read in every comparison of git vs other version control systems, that git does not record differences but takes "snapshots" I was wondering what a "snapshot" is ? Does git store at every commit the entire files which have been modified even if only a few bytes were changed out of a large file? thank you -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
