Savannah has recovered now: https://savannah.gnu.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=5828 I checked out both their SVN backups with rsync. The April one seems to be really working but the incomplete May not: $ svnadmin verify grub-new svnadmin: No such revision 0 The April one is up to rev 2148. So now we have to decide what to do. Unfortunately Okuji already objected against git [0] Though I don't understand why the 3-way merge could be a problem. With SVN you even can't do local commits and with git you don't need to use them if you have fear. Or even merging from other people like the Kernel team does. We could still use it more like SVN.
