Hi Zoltan, That is correct. It is not compressed to 44 objects. It is just compressing (packing) 44 objects it has not compressed yet. But git downloads the whole history for you since the very first version of QGIS anyway. That is fine if you are going to develop and want to keep track of what has been done when etc.
If you are worried about the download size, you can either use --depth 1 when cloning http://gistflow.com/posts/430-git-clone-without-history or just download the zip file of the branch you are interested on the github project page.
