gitweb can help with lack of resumable clone

Hello,

Over on #git someone asked about this, and I realised I'd been using a
bundle file to solve this problem, albeit manually.

So I started wondering.  What if gitweb had, along with "summary",
"shortlog", etc., a "bundle" button.  This button would link to a
static bundle file.  The bundle file can be generated once a day by
cron or some other means, and that should actually be quite sufficient
-- you should not need more frequent updates to the bundle file.

A user faced with the need for a resumable clone would then download
the bundle (using say wget -c or curl -C, resumable), clone from it,
and then *fetch* from the repo.

The user would still have to take a couple of extra steps (wget,
clone, git remote --set-url, fetch) instead of just clone, but it's
not too bad.

Thoughts?  Has this been discussed before?
