I now have access to alioth and I was able to clone puppet.git using the following command:

 git clone git+ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-puppet/puppet.git debian.git

I'd like to know what the current practice with pushing patches to the git
repository. It seems that a +1 practice is being pushed forward. Which workflow is put forward:

  A. 1. commit to the git repository
     2. +1 on the mailing list (what happens when no +1 are received? Default to accepting or rejecting?)

  B. 1. send patch to mailing list (via git-send-email)?
     2. +1 on the mailing list (how many?)
     3. commit to the git repository (who?)

Option A or B?

Thanks,
