Okay, thanks, I didn't quite remember :) In any case, unless we get a hold of git-vcs/git, we have two viable options: - gitvcs/git owned by Olliver. - git-scm/git. I just discovered a few hours ago that the git-scm group is owned by Chris, so we can set this one up easily. I'd personally rather go with the latter, mostly because it matches our git-scm.com domain. I also like it better than the current git-vcs/git because of that. So Chris, would you mind adding me (@pks-t, my non-GitLab handle) as an additional owner of that group? I'd be happy to manage the rest from there -- setup of the project, mirroring, CI system and changing our docs to point to the new mirror. Patrick
