No, sorry for not pointing that out on my previous email, you can use a

<GitRepositories> tags in place.

GitRepositories is really not needed. A script adds that, there is no
need to add such information IMO.

The build-repo-list script adds the GitRepository property to the DOAP file at https://git.gnome.org/repositories.doap but does not add the same information to the DOAP file in each repository.

I think that the DOAP files in each repository should be the canonical source of project metadata, so that moving the injected data from repositories.doap to individual modules should be a goal. This has the (slight) benefit that public clones of the repository will then contain the upstream location of the source.

However, it is a minor thing, and the current mirror script works without it. None of the current sysadmin scripts use the GitRepository property, other than injecting it into repositories.doap.
