Every SpareMiNT CVS repository is available at https://github.com/freemint (it includes some really obscure ones, who remembers Ozk's VDI project?), Vincent has moved his gcc/binutils/gdb repositories there, so I did my git repository.

For example, for editing the website or a README or any text you don't need to even use git at all, all can be done in the web UI and press "Create Pull Request" button, yes, it's this easy!
