Don't know about the other release team members, but I wasn't aware of
this.

At this moment, it's not an option for any official GNOME module to move
to git: this totally breaks the workflow of at least translators, just
before 2.26.0. I'm pretty sure we didn't complete all tasks required for
such a migration to happen (eg, do we have correct documentation?).

So, please revert this migration for gnome-screensaver.

cc'ing gnome-infrastructure so that similar migrations for official
GNOME modules are blocked.
(fwiw, it's fine to have other modules like gnome-shell in git)
