I've seen multiple projects now that have their main mirror hosted
themselves with some magic syncing it to github (Linux, U-Boot).
I haven't quite figured out *how* they do that, but since it's been done
before I guess there must be a way. My gut feeling is that mirroring is
built into github itself even.
