plays really well with git

yes, but there are still some limitations that i've run up against (which i am trying to fix) when it comes to repos with a lot of history.

you can work around this issue by using a lot of small repos, but once you reach a certain threshold it becomes impossible to clone a repo from ssb[0]. going further, you also cannot push repos beyond a certain size[1].

these are sample repos that these claims are true for, but i still have more measuring to do so i can say what the exact threshold is.

i lean very heavily on the tech that i use to find the places that need improvement. that said, ssb is an amazing technology and quite new. it works very well for the social networking use case. with some work, we can make it fast/reliable enough for general applications.
