ok, so Fabien's tree is the one duplicating the work :) looks like for
years I used the wrong one and better have to switch to the tree from
github to get the full history.

Fabien, if the size is the only matter of your tree, shouldn't you
just create a shallow tree from the common tree ? At least, hashes
will match up to a given point. You may also want to clean the
branches to only keep releng/, stable/, releases/ and head/.
