Well, I don't have a machine anywhere that is switched on for most of the 
week, so I didn't think of running this on my own. But indeed, someone with a 
machine which is online most of the time could easily set this up.

Did I understand this correctly: The github repositories doesn't support git 
branches where more than one developer can push to? Is this true? It sounds a 
bit weird not to have this (even though some projects might do well without).
