git clone with --depth 1, over http (instead of ssh), and with a few simple settings changes will make it work inside of 128M.
Well, the whole point of virtual memory and demand paging is that you don't have to have enough physical memory. I would hope that still applies... My comment about have 128M (which, by the way, can be considered a lot, when we talk about VAXen), was just about the potential speed I possibly could expect. If git really requires that people have at least 128M of physical memory to work, then I'd first ask when did NetBSD break so badly that the amount of physical memory becomes a limitation in this way, and second, why would a tool like this require that much memory in the first place?
