Of course even better would be to _replace_ the savannah repo with the
one from repo.or.cz (it could simply be a clone, given that it's pretty
much trivial to do so ...).
Not just for yucks -- savannah now supports the git smart-http protocol,
whereas repo.or.cz doesn't, and that can make a huge difference for
those behind firewalls.
