Do you reclone everytime? Why not just update your existing clone with git-fetch (or git-pull, which will also update your working directory if it is clean; but git-pull should only be run by cron if you didn't do any development in this repo and you are just tracking what happens upstream). But notice that it will give you very much the same output as the clone, but there was currently something merged into the master branch on git.git to prevent this [1]. (After looking on the patch it seems to work only for the native git proctocoll, but see below) One question, why do you use http for fetching/cloning? I'm not sure that on alioth the native git protocol for annonymous is activated ([2] doesn't mention it), but it is _way_ more efficient. Especially if someone repacks the repository you have to download the _whole_ repo again, although you already have every object. At least git+ssh works, so you could use git over ssh to transfer the objects efficently if you have an account on alioth.
