Make GitLab backends repository the canonical location for code
To do so, the following need to be taken care of:
-
make Alioth repositories read-only -
verify that the GitLab mirrors are up-to-date -
stop mirroring -
update the project description -
update Alioth references in the source (backends@f38a1731) -
update the website (see website@371e29ff)
Making the Alioth repositories read-only can be done by making the pre-receive hook on Alioth exit with a non-success status. The script should echo information on where push requests should be directed from here on and how to switch a local repository over.
