Heya,

I agree here, we should either say "look, we don't really support big
repositories because [explanation here], unless you [workarounds
here]" OR we should work to improve the support we do have. Of course,
the latter option does not magically create developer time to work on
that, but if we do go that way we should at least tell people that we
are aware of the problems and that it's on the global TODO list (not
necessarily on anyone's personal TODO list though).
Of course, the problem can sometimes be solved by splitting the
repository, but I think it is important to have an official policy
here, do we want Git to support huge repositories, or do we not?
