Fair enough. I hereby volunteer to setup and maintain the git

Email [EMAIL PROTECTED] and ask what kind of sponsorship they want
to require for a shell account (for write access to repositories, we
usually only require 1 sponsor, but these do not give you shell
access).
As stated above, I'd like to request shell access to gcc.gnu.org to
setup a git mirror of the GCC svn repository. I'd also suggest Harvey
Harrison as a co-maintainer of the mirror, as he helped setting it up on
git.infradead.org.
At this time, the repository and git-svn metadata take up 2.5GB of disk
space. CPU usage is minimal. I will just have to install a shell
script running from my user crontab.
We don't require root access for ordinary maintenance, but someone would
have to install and configure at least git-daemon and gitweb to make the
mirror publicly accessible.
If it seems too much hassle for the benefit, we'll keep going with the
existing git mirror on infradead.org, but I feel it would better serve
our users and developers to at least mention it as an official mirror on
our web site.
I am happy to sponsor you if it helps.
Thanks, Daniel!
