Ah, interesting.

If this is something people want, we can get this automatically updated, too.

But I don't think this works for what I needed the all repository
originally for, which is searching across histories of plugins,
computing statistics about commits, etc. (git grep, git log -S, git
rev-list.)

I also suspect it'll take forever to check out, because it'd update
one repository at a time.

Maybe what would be useful is to have the tgz archive of the latest
source tree from all the plugins? This will let people do "grep -r".

I guess "what are you trying to use this repository for?" is what I'm
getting at.
