Sweet. Download in progress.

Snapshots leave a lot to be desired in terms of how easy they are to
work with and see changes done. Most importantly, they don't let me see
the commit-messages and rationale for changes. Besides that, I hate
juggling patches. It's damn nice to import it all into into git though.
That way I can just hack away and have git send the diffs when I'm done.
That's what I do with nagiosplug as well, btw, but we're facing quite a
bit of problems with merging our changes since we forked with the
changes in upstream.
