Files can also be transferred between two remote systems via ssh. So,
one of them can be only a data hosting.

Hi, Tilt,
A copy of the directory should work, but if you want to keep it
up-to-date, then it requires actively running (e.g. a dedicated
server). The repository can be updated localyand then the changes can
be uploaded to de server, of course, but it requires a mantainer.
Cheers,
Aitor.

Only for the /devuan repo. The /merged repo uses url rewriting to refer
to /devuan, deb-multimedia, and debian using amprolla. So you will need
to replicate packages.devuan.org/devuan and run amprolla which does the
url rewriting and will need to be configured to redirect to your nearest
upstream mirrors.

Daniel
