I did briefly look at adding a source snapshot to the snapshot target
but decided that trying to avoid picking up any non-source files was
too error prone and that the only reliable way to make them is to take
a clean checkout.

While looking at this, I wondered about whether the source snapshot
should include .svn directories.  Having them might be useful to get
the initial checkout that people could then update.  However, the .svn
directories do account for some 135M my harmony tree which comes to
around 18M for a "gzip -9" tar - approximately double the size.

Regards,
 Mark.
