Where is all the space going?  A full kernel git tree (with more than
two years of history) takes less than 150 MB of storage for me.  How
are we using up so much space?

Also, FWIW, amazon S3 is $0.15 / GB-month + $0.10 for each GB
transferred in.  Of course it's probably a lot less convenient to back
up to.
