Yes, this is nice for smaller projects. But I don't think, that we want to do such a thing on the kernel.org servers. We already have the daily snapshots and individual patches can be downloaded from gitweb. Anybody else should use git/cogito instead of letting the server packaging a huge tree for every requested revison, I think.
