i've looked into submodule i don't think that's what i need. i need to look at subtree. btw, i tried cloning to local disk running git inside a cygwin, guess what i still see the same problem, atleast on nfs, 'git log' was fast, now even 'git log' takes too long, i'm not sure if cygwin is to blame here. thanks for your responses.
