I hope that people recloning linux-next daily are very few.  This is an 
incredible waste of bandwidth, regardless of the protocol used, dumb or 
not.  A standard fetch with a remote tracking branch (with -f or with a 
plus sign on the "fetch" line in your config file) should be all that's 
needed to significantly reduce the amount of data needed to transfer.
