It doesn't seem to be the case, running sync with an empty portage tree
gives
>>> Syncing repository 'gentoo' into '/var/portage'...
/usr/bin/git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/gentoo-mirror/gentoo .
% du /var/portage
608M /var/portage
It did take 32s, but most of that was the Performing Global Updates stage.
