 Oh, I was referring to the
 [http://boxen.math.washington.edu/home/vbraun/doc/developer/walk_through.html
 #obtaining-the-sage-source-code draft]:

 ''"Obviously you need the Sage source code to develop, so we download it
 from github which is a public read-only mirror (=faster) of our internal
 git repository [...]"''

 Or, how ''I'' read it:

 ''"Obviously '''you''' need the Sage source code to develop, so '''we'''
 download it from github [WTF?!] which is a public read-only mirror [Aha,
 so I previously installed the wrong version?] (=faster) [Ok.] of '''our
 __internal__''' [!?!?!] git repository [...]"''

 Sorry for ''my'' words being misleading... :-/

 P.S.:  A mirror is always "read-only".  (Otherwise it would be a proxy, or
 an instance of a distributed system.)
