Other people have offered scripts to look at commit sizes. But it might
also be useful to see sizes by subdirectory. Sort of a "du" across all
of history. Script is below.
Note that this script also uses cat-file's "%(objectsize:disk)". So it
is finding the actual on-disk storage, taking into account delta
storage. You will need git v1.8.5 or later to use this feature.
git rev-list --objects --all |
git cat-file --batch-check="%(objectsize:disk) %(rest)" |
perl -lne '
my ($size, $path) = split / /, $_, 2;
next unless defined $path; # commit obj
do {
$sizes{$path} += $size;
} while ($path =~ s{/[^/]+$}{});
END { print "$sizes{$_} $_" for (keys %sizes) }

sort -rn
