Especially if you have a lot of people checking out files but not pushing changes that often.
Just for info, I looked at my own git archives to see what I could trim to save some space
So git doesn't carry much guilt.

when you push or pull, Git traces the commit graph
I thought that when I did a checkout ,git just over wrote my local copy with the entire file(s) that I checked out.
