All,

I have recently blown away the history of the main TDE GIT supermodule
(which does NOT contain any files, only submodule references) in order to
speed up processing and downloading of that supermodule.  The
aforementioned history was not useful, consisting primarily of automated
updates to the submodule hashes.  I have, however, left the 3.5.13-sru
branch and associated tags intact as there is no good way to shrink/squash
them.

Developers, please delete and re-download the top-level GIT supermodule. 
I have temporarily locked out commit access to that top level supermodule
to prevent accidental merges of the old history.  All other GIT modules
continue to have normal read/write permissions for the TDE development
team, so the impact of this should be minimal.

One of the most developer-visible benefits of this change is that the TDE
commits web page will now update every 6 hours instead of every 12 hours.
