Fun fact: 5.2GB out of 6.7GB of the kernel's repository is commit history, and only 1.5GB is the kernel itself. https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxmasterrace/comments/1cff7jx/fun_fact_52gb_out_of_67gb_of_the_linux_kernels/

@nixCraft I imagine Wikipedia is likely similar perhaps even more extreme (version history plus discussions)
