Yes, I was somewhat careful to check for proper mboxes from gmane;
I just missed entire ranges :x
What's also interesting about the thread you highlighed is the
extra '<>' when you started that thread; and I have a bug where
I strip off an extra '>' which needs to be fixed...
I wonder if I should make "editorial" changes to fixup user bugs,
but then there's also bunch of messages which are replies to <y>
because git-send-email had usability problems back in the day...

Thanks, should all be imported.
The one which started the thread belonging to
<loom.20100716t103549-...@post.gmane.org> was really iffy,
but I kept it; as well as an "unsubscribe" one; I guess those
people are shamed for life :)
git cat-file blob HEAD:b7/5bb577d76487bc9aebf0656d4e03eff22049f4
is totally legit, but doesn't seem to show up properly,
so there's another bug I need to fix. For the moment, the
following also works:
public-inbox.org/git/b75bb577d76487bc9aebf0656d4e03eff22049f4/
(but I guess it was reposted as <26299.4828321554$1213013...@news.gmane.org>

To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in
the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org
