...or Wolfgang can mirror the remote repositories by simply having a
cron job do a git pull periodically. That is probably the easiest and
best solution. It is trivial to pull, harder to push.

It sounds like denx.de has both the disk and bandwidth resources to
support the feeder repositories (Wolfgang's message on that was a little
confusing). I continue to advocate having all the git repositories
(either mirror or primary) on one site for easy reference and availability.
