Given that writes are rare in an LDAP directory and confined to a few entries for each write Git will store the entire history of an LDAP directory in a space efficient way. . By default the backups are done with slapcat from OpenLDAP but can be done with any command that dumps the current contents of an LDAP directory in LDIF format.
