The biggest feature for me is the efficient handling of large binary files, because it means I could finally have a completely self-contained repository (clone and everything is in one place, plus free replication), but without the performance penalties which for example Mercurial incurs with binary files:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.bitkeeper.org&#x2F;why.html" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.bitkeeper.org&#x2F;why.html</a><p>I have to try it out just for that!
