OK, that's cool.

That was what I meant!  I have an (empty) directory on git.debian.org
ready to go, but I won't have time to do this (or any other) work on
sbuild/schroot for the next 3 weeks anyway while I finish my MSc, so
there's no rush for it.

BTW, I also meant to ask how this would affect the translation teams,
since they currently have the ability to check out SVN.  Would they be
OK with a git repo?


Thanks,
Roger
