Description
Currently we use GitHub as the primary hosting for OCaml.org git repositories.
We would like to have a backup git mirror independent of GitHub, but using the same conversion scripts so that repositories and branches can be shared between the two services. Ideally we could serve it off git.ocaml.org.
