This is not exactly true - we have cases where where, for whatever
reason, commits were made after the tag. i.e. I recently got the request
to add some CVE IDs to the NEWS file in 5.3 just for having them
documented in VCS.
I'd say it's trivial to create the historic repo and that will certainly
keep all history.
