Hmm... It's fine but I see that daniel-k has been set up completely
uniquely different from the way most of our admins are configured

Yes. A while back rms and I were chatting about things and he had

I don't understand the need for a new project request. And I am not

FWIW, I found it impossible in practice to set up a usable development
instance of Savannah (or Savane). Thus, when I wanted to do experiments
like this, I merely copied

Hi Bob,
Thank you for all the emails and tips!
I've created a sv account (with ssh and gpg) and submitted a new project
request. My user name is daniel_k and the project's short name is
fsftest. Please enable the project.
Right now, most of the work for enabling git and other non-CVS web

I don't see an account for you on Savannah. Please register an
account on Savannah. Then please upload both an ssh rsa key and a gpg
key.
At this moment please use either an ssh rsa key or both an ssh rsa key
*and* an ssh

Project admins would log into Savannah web site UI. Under the
administration menu there is a "Select Features" menu. That page has
a long list of features that may be enabled or

Hello Daniel,
I will apologize to everyone here for being mostly absent from the
mailing lists the past few months. I have been overbooked and needed
to shed load and keeping up with the mailing lists was part of the
load that got shed. Sorry.

Hi Daniel - sorry, but someone else from Savannah will need to work with
you to move this forward. I just can't undertake the project.
Project maintainers on savannah cannot create their own git repos. They
have send email/submit a support request. (This is a constant thorn in

Thank you for responding! Seeing the curl commands used makes the new.py
script make a lot more sense now.
I've been thinking about how the workflow for creating git repos for
updating software subpages on gnu.org should be and how those repos can
best be identified by wildebeest for syncing.

Yes. If someone wants to use CVS to update a project's webpage, they
should not have to change their current workflow at all.
Thanks for answering regardless; it's always great to get as much input

Hi Daniel,
I'm also wondering if anyone knows of or has access to the CVS
hook/script that is on Savannah?
A gnu example is vcs1:/srv/cvs/web/emacs/CVSROOT/loginfo, which contains:

Right now, wildebeest (the gnu.org server) has a collection of scripts
that grab files from Savannah and put them into the correct place on
gnu.org. According to rwp, there is one script/CVS hook running on
Savannah that pings wildebeest but I do not know for sure. I don't have
