I came here to mention that mercurial handles large binaries very well, wheras git LFS is a fustercluck of a workflow.

It's like submodules, where people 99% of the time have to add the --init --recursive flags anyways, and yet nobody cares to optimize the workflow.

I wish git had better submodules, and better binary asset folders that could be linked and cloned/fetched/pulled/pushed without having to have a complete checkout of the whole repository with all its history.

Oh, and automatic pruning would be nice because my git servers constantly run out of HDD space when I don't do git gc regularly, which oftentimes is broken in itself already.
