The best way is to have it locally cloned. Yes the initial clone will be expensive but operations after that will be fairly smooth. You do not(!) want to execute git on one machine and having the repository beeing on an other machine (for example via a network file system, except git clone, git fetch, git push, etc.). > > > > > How to improve the performance of git status > > > > > > Git repo details: > > > > > > Size of the .git folder is 8.9MB > > > Number of commits approx 53838 (git rev-list HEAD --count) > > > Number of branches - 330 > > > Number of files - 63883 > > > Working tree clone size is 4.3GB > > > > .git folder of 8.9 MEGABYTE and working tree of 4.3 GIGABYTE?

How can you store 8.9 MB of data that will result in a 4.3 G workspace? -- Fredrik Gustafsson phone: +46 733-608274 e-mail: iveqy@xxxxxxxxx website: http://www.iveqy.com
