Hello,

Our company is evaluating SCM solutions, one of our most important requirements is performance as we develop over 3 differents sites across the world. I read that GIT doesn't use deltas, it uses snapshots. My question is: how could GIT have high performance (most of the users say that) if for synchronization (pull/push command) with e.g. a shared repository GIT transfers all modified files (and references) instead of the respective deltas? 

Thanks in advance,
Santos
