$ wget http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/snapshot/linux-6ec40b423032ca769c96fbf9a080db822821893d.tar.gz

It's downloadable, but not visible in the CGIT website if you select
the commit-id (missing download section and link).

See <http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=6ec40b423032ca769c96fbf9a080db822821893d>.
