A short downtime on the git server today prompted me to set up a mirror
of the primary git repository on github:
    https://github.com/jepler/linuxcnc-mirror
If everything goes according to plan, this mirror will be updated at
least daily with all changes from git.linuxcnc.org.

This means that in case of downtime on git.linuxcnc.org, you can still
pull or clone a relatively up to date version from github. (downtime on
git.linuxcnc.org and github.com should be pretty uncorrelated, unless
of course it's a freak solar flare that takes out all of north america)

Also, if you would like to make your own public git repository, this makes
doing it using github.com's no-cost service easier--you can use the
'Fork' button, as detailed in github's documentation.

However, please do not use the "pull request" feature on the
linuxcnc-mirror repository.  The way to get your work integrated with
linuxcnc.org continues to be this mailing list and the #linuxcnc-devel
IRC channel on freenode.  At this time, github "pull requests" will
simply go ignored.  However, if your work is on a public git server like
github it can lower the barrier to sharing it with fellow developers.
