10M/1M; that should not be an issue since normal pushes are almost instant; I don't expect a new-branch push to be that much larger. I've observed just one difference - when pushing an existing branch, the git gui displays the HTTP PUT size in bytes, if it is a new-branch push, it says "chunked" instead of the size. I'm using MsysGit 1.8.3. I'll try to observe network activity next time I push a new branch, just to be sure.
