I was doing some awful manual patching trying to get some Linux TV kernel patches into a raspberry pi kernel I was cross compiling on my main desktop.
IIRC I had both repos cloned for quick reference/source of truth and then a third I was using to do the actual work on. I remember running a du summary on my working directory with it all in at the end, and it was somewhere between 40-50GB.
There was probably a more space efficient way to achieve what I was doing, but there was no need to worry about that
