I concede my calculation was crude.

Interestingly, modifying my calculation to look
for tabs at the beginning of the line gives a
similar result:

    # calculates the extra space required to
    # use the given number of spaces/tab.
    size()
    {
        count=`grep -RIo "^\`printf \"\t\"\`" . | wc -l`;
        perl -e "print $count*$(($1-1))/1024/1024 . \" MiB\n\"";
    }

    size 8; => 49.7416791915894 MiB

and for git:
	
    size 8; => 1.25082969665527 MiB


Anyway, thanks for the neat script.
