Um ... I just did
git clone git://git.postgresql.org/git/postgresql-migration.git
and I only see nine. It's got some *other* problems though; compared
to a conversion I just finished locally, it's missing a whole lot of
history for some of the old jdbc files.

Is there any possibility that "git clone" isn't very trustworthy?
It's a bit scary that we don't see identical views of this repository.
