Yes, it's there because we can give new contributors commit access to
the gitorious branch without giving them access to the whole of GNOME
git. I didn't make it a clone of gnome-user-docs because I wanted to
keep the branch simple and lightweight, and so easier for new
contributors to deal with.

If this will turn out to be a bad idea in the future, we can change now.
The only committer so far is me, and there's little revision history.
I'm not great with git, so I'll leave it up to you to figure out what's
best.

That would be great. We can link to it from the wiki pages, and
advertise it when we respond to new contributors on gnome-doc-list.

Thanks,

Phil
