Alex,

Due to the way git stores files it is actually infinitely smaller than SVN 
storage over the long term, especially when one considers branches. If two 
files are the same, regardless if there are 7000 branches, there is only a 
single copy of the file.

If you are interested, here is some info on the overhead of git as perceived 
from the linux kernel project:
