I started this once. I have (sort of) a GIT tree with all Linux revisions that I could find from v0.01 up to v1.0.9. But the most interesting information and also what is the most time consuming is the retrieval of announcement messages for those releases in old mailing list or newsgroup archives to serve as commit log data. It seems to be even arder to find for post v1.0 releases.
