Scaling the Git Client with the Git Virtual File System - Microsoft - DevTools@Scale2017
Edward shows the tools Microsoft developed to scale Git to hundreds of gigabytes and millions of files in a single repo, and how they used these tools to migrate the Windows team to Git. Scaling source control to such size is hard, and a large part of the success in this monorepo is due to the use of the Git Virtual File System (GVFS) implemented at Microsoft.
