The overview page does not show all the options in respects to
cloning. (http://git.haiku-os.org/cgi-bin/cgit.cgi/haiku/stats/?period=m&ofs=10)
It does not mention the shortened ssh variant, and also not the git:// variant.

Also, is there a way to limit the amount of tags that are shown on the
refs page? It does get rather large now.

Furthermore, I think it is better to remove the downloadable
zip/bz2/gz archives as they are really not that useful and might put
an extra strain on the servers (as I assume that each of these
packages will be built on request).

Nice though!
