IIRc this was under discussion in past but was dismissed due to adding complexity and little overall understanding of this. However, I don't think cloning the repository is this much traffic. Also a goal was to have plugins and its patches being reviewed before entering master to enforce a minimum on quality. This also includes some fire-and-forget-plugins of some developers as you can see from MAINTAINERS files there are a lot of plugins out of maintenance. Cheers, Frank -- http://frank.uvena.de/en/
