<PRE>&gt;<i>  * Binary churn: If we add the tarballs, there can be a lot of binary
</I>&gt;<i> churn. Cloning a git repo means we get the full history locally which
</I>&gt;<i> means all copies of the tarball over the x years period. SVN is better
</I>&gt;<i> suited to binary churn, only keeping the most recent version in your
</I>&gt;<i> checkout. This is likely discussed above.
</I>
In Fedora, the tarballs are kept on a separate server, and a &quot;sources&quot; file 
with SHA1 sums is included in the git repo. The &quot;fedpkg&quot; tool can upload 
tarballs to the cache.

&gt;<i>  * Tagging: When a release is done, the packages need to be tagged. This
</I>&gt;<i> is more awkward with individual repos rather than one central one, but I
</I>&gt;<i> suspect it's a relatively easy process to script.
</I>
AFAIK, there's no global tagging for a release in Fedora.
