This gets back to the "selective/conditional mirroring" challenge though: Gerrit's replication plugin at best will let us manually list repositories to replicate by name or name regex, but maintaining this would be nontrivial (I suppose we could build a 1k+ line whitelist from deliverables registered in governance, though we wouldn't get replication for new repos instantly as that would have to wait for a Gerrit service restart and I'd be worried about Gerrit sanely handling such a long config file). It _would_ be possible to write some alternative daemon to monitor Gerrit activity and pull+push new commits to the mirror, but that's not something I personally have the bandwidth to write nor would I expect other Infra team members to prioritize something like that. -- Jeremy Stanley
