I thought I'd send out a few preliminary patches for review. This way
much of the work can be already approved once I do the git conversion.
This patch updates the binutils web site for the change to git.
Note that it presumes the existence of "src.git", which of course does
not exist yet.
Let me know what you think.
Nice.

Maybe off topic, but ... should we also make the repo available via the
http:// protocol?
Advantages:
1) Some places block things other than http:// on TCP port 80.
Disadvantages
1) Might create higher server load.
2) ??
Admittedly the pserver protocol probably has the issues with port
blocking as git does, so people who can currently access CVS would
likely not suffer a loss in functionality.
