The
http://darcs.haskell.org/packages/containers.git/
repo has a hook that checks that the patches being pushed are already in
http://darcs.haskell.org/git-mirrors/containers/.git/
so that we can't forget to send changes upstream. I don't think we can
do that without a local mirror.

Yes, thanks; fixed.
Thanks
