If it is possible to include and would not be a big pain to do, then I do agree
that it should be included. TrueCrypt's history is CipherShed's history, so I
do think it belongs, and could be useful, for the reasons you stated.

Subject: [ciphershed] TrueCrypt development history
Hi,
Is there (still) interest in having the development history of TrueCrypt
in the repository?
The diff granularity will obviously be at the level of TrueCrypt
releases rather than per change (although most of the early release
actually do document the CVS changes in Changelog.txt). But I think
that's still a very valuable resource when (rather than if) for example
git blame is used.
Having the history in another repository is an option but it would
rather defeat the purpose, having to check another repository.
An example of the repository is available at:
https://github.com/discnl/truecrypt-source-archive
Created using the bash conversion script at:
https://github.com/discnl/convert-truecrypt-archives
Using the tar.gz and zip source archives from:
https://github.com/DrWhax/truecrypt-archive
Regards,
Dimitri
