I use HTTP for ordinary development.
However file is also used often in tooling. For example I have a
custom release plugin that deploys to a file based staging repository.
Only when the release completely succeeds, is the staging repository
uploaded (using the staging plugin) to the real repository. This buys
me atomic releases (because release:perform does fail sometimes even
if release:prepare didn't).
