Moving my git repositories

I finally got around to creating git.spearce.org.  I've been contributing to Git since Feb 17 2006 and yet I couldn't be bothered to setup my own Git host for my repositories.  For the past 3 years I've primarily leaned on Pasky's excellent repo.or.cz service.  But I've always wanted a more permanent home for my projects.

Last week I threw SpamAssassin off my domain's server, which meant I finally had virtual memory free to run git daemon. So you can now find most of my projects at git.spearce.org, with proper git:// URLs available for efficient cloning.  Maybe sometime later this month I'll get smart HTTP enabled as well.

I'll continue to update the repositories on repo.or.cz, but I'll primarily be using the ones hosted on git.spearce.org.
