Alright, done. I have updated my migration script to edit Vcs-* urls!
(https://salsa.debian.org/aviau/migrate-pkg-go-to-salsa)
It does not create a changelog entry yet, but I'll fix that before the
migration.

Okay, I agree.

Okay, but can you allow me to do that? You are the only owner of the
setup-repository script. I would just `chmod -x setup-repository`.
That would be my new draft announcement:
```
Dear pkg-go contributors,
I will be migrating all of pkg-go's Alioth repositories to
salsa.debian.org <http://salsa.debian.org/> on <date>.
=== About the migration ===
- A mail will be sent to pkg-go-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org
<mailto:pkg-go-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org> when
the migration starts and when it ends
- All repositories in git.debian.org:/git/pkg-go/packages will be
migrated to the pkg-go-team group on salsa.debian.org
<http://salsa.debian.org/>[1] You should join
the group if you are not already in it!
- Repositories will keep the same name, with ".git" removed.
- HTTP anonscm.debian.org <http://anonscm.debian.org/> links of migrated
repositories will be
redirected to the new location.
for example, you can test the following links:
- https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-go/packages/syncthing
<https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-go/packages/syncthing>
- https://anonscm.debian.org/git/pkg-go/packages/syncthing.git
<https://anonscm.debian.org/git/pkg-go/packages/syncthing.git>
- Vcs-* urls will be automatically replaced in debian/control
- Repository creation on Alioth will be created when the migration
starts. It will not be re-enabled.
=== During the migration ===
- You may still push to Alioth. However, your pushes could be denied
because the repository no longer exists.Don't panic! It was moved to
Gitlab. If you push to Alioth during the migration, take a moment to
confirm that your changes are available on salsa after the migration,
just in case there was some sort of race condition.
- You may start using salsa repositories immediately after they are
created. No need to wait for the migration to end.
=== After the migration ===
- A read-only copy of the migrated repositories will remain available in
git.debian.org:/git/pkg-go/packages-migrated-to-salsa
- You may point your git working directories to the new remote address
with this oneliner:
``git remote set-url origin git at salsa.debian.org:pkg-go-team/$(git
config --get remote.origin.url | tr "/" "\n" | tail -n 1)``
1. https://salsa.debian.org/pkg-go-team
<https://salsa.debian.org/pkg-go-team>
Cheers,
```
We will wait for an answer from tincho before we pick a date, but do you
have any other comments on the announcement?
Thanks,
