I forgot to mention: To make the repository self-hosting, you must set
git config core.symlinks false
but since you can do this only after a repository exists, a 'git clone'
will still fail during the checkout phase. To fix up the failure, just
enter the repository, set core.symlinks false, and follow-up with a 'git
reset --hard'.
