Terrascenery is a somewhat special case in that it has almost just one single, automated feed, it is destined to never require any review before commit, will likely never see a branch and therefore doesn't fit well as a comparison in the context of the current discussion. Just for the record: Pulling Scenery from an SVN repository requires a little bit more than twice the local disk space compared to the net size of the respective content - which is almost the same ratio as with GIT, at least for stuff like the Base Package. > And here's a page comparing SVN, GIT and Mercurial.

Much has changed until now.
