l10n.gnome.org almost out of disk space

[Olav Vitters <olav vitters nl>]

Main disk space usage seems to be the 'POT' directory. The server has
129GB in total. Out of 117GB used, 90GB is used by
/var/www/gnomeweb/scratchdir/POT

root@progress:/var/www/gnomeweb/scratchdir# du -sh *
12K	cvs
17G	git
90G	POT
3.2G	svn
9.1M	xml


So 17GB for git clones. Almost nothing for cvs. Minor for svn (gnucash,
webkit). Majority is in POT.

Noticed that the POT directory has things like:
  gnome-screensaver.gnome-2-14



Could we limit the number of previous versions? E.g. head, GNOME 2.32,
2.30 and perhaps 2.28?

Furthermore, could damned-lies automatically clean the scratchdir for
items it really does not need anymore?

Lastly, above is mostly text. If these are needed, I think we could
setup something where the files are stored with compressed (.gz!) and
serves them that way (automatically decompressing for the few clients
which do not handle gzip).
