+### Be careful with "mass pushes" to repositories
+ASF Infra notes that pushing to many Git repositories quickly can cause heavy
load on their github
+push queue. It's good to coordinate with them when doing such things, and/or
add a few seconds of delay
+between pushes. A delay of 5 seconds between each push worked well for
[SLING-10676](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-10676)
+when removing the SECURITY.md files that had been added unnecessarily, while
adding them had raised alarms
+due to fast pushes without delays.

### Updating the list of modules
That list is found in the [default.xml](./default.xml) file.
