Cloning it that way didn't help either,

But I have more info

If I set a bare repo and push my four branches to it (master, develop,
gh-pages and experimental) the total size of the repo is 2.4MB
(instead of 87MB)


$ git init --bare en4j_xx
$ cd en4j
$ git checkout master
$ git push file://$PWD/../en4j_xx master
$ git checkout develop
$ git push file://$PWD/../en4j_xx develop
$ git checkout experimental
$ git push file://$PWD/../en4j_xx experimental
$ git checkout gh-pages
$ git push file://$PWD/../en4j_xx gh-pages
$ $ du -sh ../en4j_xx
2.3M	../en4j_xx

So, how can I find the contents present in en4j that are not present in en4j_xx?
