Recent portage can use sync-depth = 1
repo dir no longer grows as it used to and it's works fine unlike initial 
implementation that was giving trouble

https://bugs.gentoo.org/552814

du -hs /var/db/repos/gentoo
350M    /var/db/repos/gentoo

example /etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf :
[DEFAULT]
main-repo = gentoo

[gentoo]
auto-sync = yes
location = /var/db/repos/gentoo
sync-type = git
sync-uri = https://github.com/gentoo-mirror/gentoo.git
sync-depth = 1
sync-git-clone-extra-opts = -b master
sync-git-verify-commit-signature = true


sync is almost instantaneous compared to rsync, but some folks not going to 
like github as a mirror in this case.
