I've setup a cron job every hour, but I can increase the
frequency if needed.  git-svn is not a cpu/bandwidth hog.

my guess is that all of these combined should be smaller
than GCC alone.  There should be fewer users, too.

Be our guest, and let me know if you find a way to
repack the repo to a smaller size.

Not that I care that much... 800MB is small enough for
today's bandwidth.
