The git mirror has been updated from the Subversion repository on commit
for quite a while, so it was up to date, it just wasn't the correct place
for committers to push changes to; this is what has changed now.

I just got done editing a bunch of the wiki pages about the development
process, primarily https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/TwistedDevelopment —
so hopefully it should be clearer how to proceed now.

The main remaining problem with pull requests is that a committer has to
push a branch to the main repository in order to run builds on the
buildbots; this is due to issues around executing arbitrary code on the
buildbots. Thus a PR-based workflow for non-committers currently doesn't
make much sense.

Issue tracking remains on Trac, at least for the forseeable future
(implementing our workflow with GitHub issues is quite challenging).
