You could try at least to use git for the source code only if you want version control so badly, and share all content via db. It's 3 MB against ~700 MB, this way the probability of error on the part of the git will be much less.

Yeap, that is one possibility, yet there is a but coming... I want git version to mimic my dev version. Otherwise I'll have to maintain three copies of code and that's complete crap. It's possible to use git for everything but char/rchar folders and that might be an acceptable solution.
BTW: I do not want/use version control while I am on my own or someone else is working on a closed system (Like Rudi's tag system). But if someone wants to contribute some code, it might not be a bad idea to figure out how to get git working.
What I've found out:
--- Code: ---$> git config --global core.compression -1
$> git config --add core.compression -1
--- End code ---
Entering these two commands should solve the EOF error that doesn't allow repo to be downloaded normally. I've tried it and am downloading the repo right now as a guest (without membership on SF/Project). I've killed my internet twice, ran a lot of different software and overloaded my line through torrents and yet git is still going strong... I'll let you know how it ends. I am currently using GUI so it doesn't report how many % is left.
PS: Not the right place to post it but Roman started on a decent engine for exploration/combat that could resemble Kamidori (haven't played it yet) when it's done. We could use something like that in the future. I am feeling much better as well so plan is to resume working on the game (Arena) tomorrow. I've been reading/listening to Python lectures in the meanwhile :)
Update:
Same Error... but the folder is increasing in size every time. It could be a temporary error, git seems to suck for large projects. I think I will get the whole 1.6 GB eventually...

Maybe not only for large ones (§8 is so true ::)). Just google for "git sucks" and enjoy even more angry reviews.
You could try bazaar or mercurial instead. The last one was created to effectively work with large repositories.

LoL
Mercurial gets extra points for Python... but they are very similar in their core... if git'll keep crapping out on us, I'll try mercurial next.

Done with the git!
Fecking peace of cr@p downloaded 8.5 Gb of data for the project that's currently 1.6 GB and still failed to build sh!t. At this point I don't even care why there are errors or why it's not working. I am trying out Mercurial now.
