Note: I had some failures (KGB) when pushing on git.debian.org.

It would be useful to also keep a repository for the tests.
It used to be in /debian/trunk/tests/ but from my point of view it would

Serge, is it something you can do?
There are no tags / branches for the tests.

Looks like the home page is also gone from Alioth.
I will look at it.
