This is finally possible!  Sorry for the long wait, to everybody who has
been asking for this.  You should be able to:

git clone git://gemini.circumlunar.space/gemini-site

and end up with a repo which contains the entire
gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space site, except for the CAPCOM instance
(which is powered by a cronjob) and, of course, the user directories.
So, you'll find the current specification under docs/specification.gmi
in your cloned repo.

If you wind the history back far enough in time, it will jump from
containing the entire site to containing just the essential documents
and, at the very first commit, only the (then very rough!)
specification.

I hope people enjoy this glimpse into the history of the protocol!

Cheers,
Solderpunk
