This is a useful progression.  But there still must be an easy and
efficient way to mirror the whole repository.

It appears that this change broke ftp and rsync access, the only
reasonable methods of mirroring the old repo.

You need to either make the full repo available via rsync and ftp
or -- even better -- publish it via a distributed revision control
system such as git, mercurial or bzr.

The ability to have a full, local, offline mirror is /important/.
As is efficiency -- downloading changes rather than whole files.
