I will recreate parabolaiso.git for two reasons:

1. Some binaries were pushed, and the git repo is much heavier. Git is not good 
at tracking large binary data, and especially bad at frequently updating large 
binary data, because the old data can never be removed. We can't push the 
binary user configuration files directly to git. We have to avoid configuration 
binaries or get around it somehow, like using an external tarball or keeping 
separate repos.

2. The current ISO profile directories were copied from the releng directory. 
This means the profiles don't have a common history with the releng profile, 
which makes it difficult to transfer commits between profile directories, in 
particular from releng to the other profiles, which is necessary to merge 
changes from archiso. Now we are getting one branch for each profile.


Git repository update.

In case you don't know, you can't push from your current branches. One solution 
is cloning the new repo to a new directory, and reapply local modifications if 
you have any.

I'll move the current repo to ~old/parabolaiso.git and the new one will use the 
current URLs. I'll include the profile/branch "gnome", but I won't include the 
profile for Lxde because it has binary configuration files (Lxde may be pushed 
when it's ready). I'll do it next week, ok?
