+<PRE>'Twas brillig, and Colin Guthrie at 22/03/13 09:32 did gyre and gimble:
+&gt;<i> Hi,
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Just to avoid a crazy amount of scripting with svn checkouts and such
+</I>&gt;<i> like, I've set running a git svn clone of the cauldron package
+</I>&gt;<i> subversion tree.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> It'll take a while to complete (likely about 24hrs in total by current
+</I>&gt;<i> estimates) and it should take up about 800MB (rough estimate) in total.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> When complete it will act as a handy source for doing full repository
+</I>&gt;<i> greps and such like. It will also be useful for making mass changes (git
+</I>&gt;<i> svn rebase and git svn dcommit are you friends).
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I'll endevour to make it available via a public clone when done, but due
+</I>&gt;<i> to it's size and nature it'll likely only appeal to a few people.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Just thought I'd let you know.
+</I>
+OK, the process is now complete! \o/
+
+It took quite a while to run (&gt;24hours) and the freshly git gc'ed .git
+folder is ~500MB. Compressed to a xz tar this folder is 400MB.
+
+I missed out the two commits where all of the cauldron tree was
+accidentally moved to obsolete folder and then moved back again, so git
+blame works nicely.
+
+That said, running git blame takes *ages* even on an SSD drive. It was
+at least a couple minutes to display the results of a blame on a spec file.
+
+
+If anyone wants a copy, just let me know. I could make a public,
+automatically updating, read-only version available if there is
+interest, but to be really useful you'd likely want to be able to
+dcommit changes too which I think can only really be done with a copy of
+the clone I made.
+
+Cheers
+
