I thought the Linux kernel would have a massive amount of SLOC but it isn't even making OpenGrok blink. I know the question of the largest project has been asked but what collection of code is arguable the largest. i would prefer either tar, gz, or a hub style place where I can script and point my subversion or git client.

Rather than just the kernel, why don't you grab the source packages for a whole distro?

A: 

I think there are some Linux and also some BSD distributions that keep all the sources of all the packages in a single sourcetree, especially in the embedded or special purpose space. OpenSolaris is managed in a similar way.
