I agree, I don't think this is a really good idea. I think splitting out the 
test data in a different optional repository would help shrink the repository.

Also, we don't need to cutout the history, people who don't want the history 
can do:

git clone --depth 1 --branch master kde:krita

And they will get a fully functionnal tree, with only the master branch, that 
they can update with pull and provide patches. While leaving the rest of us 
with a full history.

If I do that with calligra, my .git goes from 789MB to 209MB.
