You are right that cloning a repository essentially creates copies of
all of the files that ever existed in the history of a repository. The
older files are stored in this directory, I think: .hg/store/data/
(http://hgbook.red-bean.com/hgbookch4.html)

Can you explain what is wrong with keeping the object files in the
history and spreading them on other people's computers even if they
are hidden somewhere in .hg/store/data/?

Thanks.
