  Shallow clones (Carl Worth).

  The experiment last round did not work out very well, but as
  existing repositories get bigger, and more projects being
  migrated from foreign SCM systems, this would become a
  must-have from would-be-nice-to-have.

  I am beginning to think using "graft" to cauterize history
  for this, while it technically would work, would not be so
  helpful to users, so the design needs to be worked out again.
Perhaps use comment for marking graft as cauterizing history?

There was also talk about proposed git-splithist, which would move some of
the history to other (historical, archive) repository.
