I get about 1.4 GB for the pack with the default

I forgot to mention that I obtained an ~800MB repository
with git 1.5.0.x after increasing the window size to 20.
The defaults changed significantly somewhere near version 1.5.1 I
believe with the delta caching mechanism making it much less expensive
to use a deeper delta depth.
Did you enable UseDeltaBaseOffset perhaps? Or any of the git-gc
configuration parameters?
I suspecet I may have huge loose objects created by
git-svn because of how it does branching and rebasing.
I don't know what Harvey is up to, he claimed his tree
was between 400 and 500 MB.
Sorry, my mistake, the repo I was looking at only contained a clone of trunk.
Mine too. I have not cloned the branches.
I'm starting to pull the rest of the branches now, but I am also a
little surprised at the difference.
Please, make your tree available for inspection.
