It's not just me. AFAIK not a single committer in the xwiki project has ever copied the history between our active repositories (except you before this mail was voted ;)). We have copied history when we moved to retired or when we moved from xwiki-contrib to xwiki but that's normal since in those cases the source repo was supposed to be "dead" and I completely agree with this. Anyway let's try to find an agreement on the other thread.
