reading "man git-clone", and i understand the mechanics of the local
protocol, so that if i run:

  $ git clone /path/to/repo

then "files under .git/objects/ directory are hardlinked to save space
when possible."

  but if the repo is in a separate filesystem, or on an NFS mount,
hardlinks clearly won't work, so what happens then? does it default
all the way back to regular copies? is there no intermediate symlink
feature that would still work? (i suspect i am far from the first
person to wonder this.)
