Everything, guis and manpages included, from <http://git.or.cz/>.  
Mostly the space is taken by the 106 binaries, the majority being ~  
2MB in size when stripped (and 6MB when not).

I'll look into that. But perhaps you're thinking of the "GNU  
interactive tools" git, not the "stupid content tracker" git, which is  
a popular distributed version control system like mercurial?

However comparing the binary sizes with what gets put on a Linux box  
or zone would be interesting.

Cheers,
