Yes, we'll need to update this once it's working. The current repo can
be used to try things out. Just keep in mind that it's most likely
going to be wiped (esp. if I manage to make a mistake). Some issues are
already outdated, need to re-import them.
We'll need a new page for git. The mercurial page can be updated to
explain how to use Mercurial locally with github. Feel free to propose
something, keeping the step-by-step style.

I'll consider pull requests a convenient way for people to make a patch
available. We'll have to see how this can be copied to the vim-dev list
(without causing spamming). It's possible to grab a diff of the pull
request, so I can at least keep working the old way. Obviously pressing
the "merge" button won't work, it doesn't create a patch and makes
things go out of sync. But several people consider the merge button a
bad idea anyway (pull requests are often unfinshed work).
