No, you don't. You make links to 200MB+ (unless you're on Windows,
where I don't know how this works). This is much cheaper than
copying, though not as cheap as in git. I don't hesitate to make
branches in Mercurial.
It can still do hardlinks on Windows, provided the repo is on NTFS
(and I think NTFS supports only hardlinks within the same partition).
Strictly: on the same volume. (Which will generally but not always amount
to: under the same drive letter)
