The signoff (for our project) is all about the "yes, this contribution
can go under the gpl". So that part is very non-optional. :)

Yeah, it can definitely occur regardless. It was just the plausible
reason to have a handler which does not bother to look at the incoming

connect to; maybe that's OK if you configure it only inside a specific
repo and only fetch from one server).
