And thanks for reporting.


I haven't yet taken a closer look at the web representation of a git repo.

The transition is still in progress. I'm waiting for an announce that
`git clone SOME_URL` is ready.

When  git cloning and git pulling is possible, then I'm happy.

A web view on the repo is low priority to me. My advice in this:
* Let the migration stablize
* Wonder how much HTML caching there is
* Find contact with maintainers of the web sauce
