Summary from the contributors summit:
* encoding was a huge discussion point:
  If you use Git on a case sensitive file system, you may have
  branches "foo" and "FOO" and it just works. Once you switch over
  to another file system this may break horribly.

  The discussion revealed lots more of these points in Git and then a
  discussion on fundamentals sparked, on whether we want to go by the lowest
  common denominator or treat any system special or have it as is, but less
  broken.

* We still don't know how to handle large repositories
  (I am working on submodules but that is too vague and not solving
  the actual problem, people really want there
    * large files
    * large trees
   [* lots of commits (i.e. lots of objects)]
   in one repo and it should work just as fast.)

That was my main take away.
