hi list

I am not sure if this is the right place to ask. I am having some difficulties to speed up synchronization of a large git repo (~4GB) to a mobile phone via USB cable. It appears that the "git pull" command has to read through the entire history to make a single update, even the update is very minor.

I post my full question at this link:
http://groups.google.com/group/git-users/browse_thread/thread/9f33536257535b28?hl=en

does this make sense? is there a way to speed up the updating without letting git to do all the file readings?

thanks
Qianqian
