Well, it's a reasonably big issue on the server anyways, it takes about 2 hours (see one of Lalo's messages) to branch the crossfire server over http with bzr. (of course, if one can handle that wait one time, it isn't so bad after if one keeps an 'incoming' branch due to never having to download the whole history ever again)
