It looks like I will have to remove the gtkwrite_git package completely and
create a new gtkwrite-git. Attempting a name change fails due to an unexpected
pkgbase being rejected, e.g.

remote: error: invalid pkgbase: gtkwrite-git, expected gtkwrite_git
remote: error: hook declined to update refs/heads/master
To ssh://aur.archlinux.org/gtkwrite_git.git
 ! [remote rejected] master -> master (hook declined)
error: failed to push some refs to 
'ssh://a...@aur.archlinux.org/gtkwrite_git.git'


What is the best way to fix this? clone a new repo with the -git name and then
-- how do I completely remove the old _git package?
