Ok -- pushed the repository out to our mirror box. Try:

   git-clone http://mirrors.catalyst.net.nz/pub/mozilla.git/

Now, good news. No, _very_ good news. As I was rsync'ing this out, and
looking at the repo, suddently something was odd. Apparently after a
git-repack -a -d OOMd on me, and I had posted this message, I re-ran
it.

[As it happens I have been running several imports of gentoo and moz
lately on thebox. It is entirely possible that cvsps or a stray
git-cvsimport was sitting on a whole lot of ram at the time]

Now I don't know how much memory or time this took, but it clearly
completed ok. And, it's now a single pack, weighting a grand total of
617MB

So my comments about OOM'ing were wrong apparently. Hey, if the whole
history is actually only 617MB, then initial checkouts are back to
something reasonable, I'd say.

cheers,
