Just look at it: > > http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git The emacs git mirror at repo.or.cz is being updated too (actually, I suspect that git.savannah.gnu.org is mirroring repo.or.cz, or vice versa) but in the past the mirroring routine stopped for months and there is no guarantee that it won't happen again. So I'll like to stop depending on third parties and do the mirroring myself. Hence if anyone wishes to share his recipe(*), I'll be grateful. (*) IIRC, doing the job on a reasonably efficient and correct way is non-trivial.
