Yeah, Heikki - I wonder if you're missing the point.  In our case, we  
don't bother with repository backups here.  Everyone developer has a  
full copy of the repository, and any one of them could be used to  
create a new "central" git repository.  If our central git repository  
goes down - we've got 9 others floating around on different laptops  
and computers.  You can't beat that kind of redundancy.  You'd have to  
nuke Utah to take us out (btw: please don't nuke Utah).
