(I'm sorry for the incomplete paragraph.)

I wanted to say that this would allow switching to an arbitrary
version/date of distribution via rsync without having to provide all
those files as flat files on the server. Providing 700 unzipped
version of ConTeXt on the server is definitely not feasible, but the
.git repository of that only consumes 33 MB.
