I would like to solve #1057386: Provide a way to download the entire git codebase for all projects.

I have written / adapted some shell scripts to do this and have successfully cloned all git repos. Now I would like to take the next step to set this as a hosted sevice.

My plan is to create a d.o project with these scripts and a torrent file, updated weekly, with all the latest developments, as a snapshot, in a 7zip file. People should be able get a snapshot and then update it as needed.

I want to host these up-to-date snapshot torrents in an entirely scripted fashion and let it run for the life of d.o. If I am allowed to set this up at OSUOSL, then I can do this and not worry about paying any bills on time.

Thank you.
