Generally, cloning seems to take longer than I had expected, given 
gnuplot is a rather lean project.  It could be that SourceForge is just 
slow.  The cloning seems "chunky" in the respect it loads a bunch of 
objects then sort of slows down; speeds up again, slows down.

I don't see any authorship mapping; everything seems to appear as the 
committer is the author.  For example, I've searched "git log" for 
"Sebald" and only see my name appear in ancillary comments.  Never is my 
name/address as gotten from the ChangeLog record in the authorship line.

Some entries near the beginning of the project, as viewed through gitg:

# Apr 15 1998, 20:16 Initial import of beta340.

In gitg, no file diffs appear.

# Apr 15 1998, 20:16 *** empty log message ***

In gitg, "Loading diff..." never resolves.
