Converting linphone to git

Hi,

linphone is still packaged in SVN. The package has accumulated 6 NMUs in
the last three years. The SVN repo misses at least the last 4 NMUs (the
history is a bit weird) and has been updated to a new upstream version
(3.8.2 I think) that has never been released to unstable.

Since I need linphone I have converted the SVN repo to git and put it
here

https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/users/berni/linphone.git/

The jessie branch has imported all the accumulated NMUs.

Unless anyone objects until end of this week I intend to push the git
repo to pkg-voip, then do an upload of a -2.7 (or -3?) to sid pointing
to the git repo. This way we have at least a clean slate for Stretch. I
don't think we can package a new upstream version in time for stretch
because libraries are involved (although I'm not sure whether it is a
transition if the libraries and all rdeps are built from the same source
package).

Best Regards,
Bernhard
