That process is called “reviewing” and replaces all the “-official”
repositories. The reviewed code should not be in its own repository, it should
merely be a branch. Whether it’s a branch called something like “stable” that
lags behind master or whether “master” is the reviewed branch and we only work
in “next” or “pu” (“proposed updates,” stolen from git.git) is entirely up to
us.
