    Any notes on how you maintain repository-level information?

    For example, the expense in BK wasn't the single-file history, it was the
    _repository_ history, ie the "ChangeSet" file. Which grows quite slowly,
    but because it _always_ grows, it ends up being quite big and expensive to
    parse after three years.

    Ie do you have the git kind of "independent trees/commits", or do you
    create a revision history of those too?
