It currently checks whether the file exists and, if it doesn't, it is re-generated. I think the patch is good idea.

Why would it be? Unless you know who to talk to for this :-), it's not really a derivative of the Linux kernel.

Hopefully, when I get a bit of time, I'll try to give up the http-hosted repository and use Pasky's one exclusively.
BTW, how can I notify people that only pull from the http repository that it will no longer be updated (rather than them thinking the development stopped)? One solution would be to create a file with a meaningful name in the top dir and hope people will notice it.
