we should probably have one ${REPO}-tarballs repository for each ${REPO}
with blobs, I don't think I want to mix them into ${REPO}
IIRC there are nvidia-cg-tookit, nvidia-cuda-toolkit and
nvidia-graphics-drivers. We should be OK losing all the nvidia-settings
etc. tarballs.

I still don't see how a workflow could look like ... we need some kind
of shallow clone by default with the option to retrieve older tarballs
easily ... (and without losing the current bits)
Having a subdirectory for each version may (or may not) be a good idea.

snapshot.d.o has only most of the tarballs, and it requires an accepted
upload before it can be used.
