you might try the page titled "Mirrors". This commit adds a link to
that page, pointing to the newly-written third-party mirror documentation.

general-concepts/mirrors: Update the method of replacing files

The modern method of replacing repackaged distfiles is to rename them
using SRC_URI arrows, not do some mirror-replacement voodoo.

 <title>Replacing Automatically Mirrored Files</title>
 <body>
 <p>
-On rare occasions you may need to replace a file that is already mirrored.  In this case proceed as
-follows:
-<ol>
-  <li>Put a copy of the new distfile on dev.gentoo.org into /space/distfiles-local</li>
-  <li>commit the new manifest to the git tree</li>
-  <li>wait</li>
-</ol>
-After a few hours a cron job on dev.gentoo.org will fetch the file and replace the version on the
-mirrors.  The file will be automatically removed from /space/distfiles-local after approximately two
-weeks.
+On rare occasions you may need to replace a file that is already mirrored.
+This is usually the case when upstream remakes a release package. If this
+is necessary, please use <c>SRC_URI</c> arrow to rename the file. For example:
+</p>
+
+<codesample lang="ebuild">
+# upstream updated the distfile in place, so make it .r1
+SRC_URI="https://example.com/badupstream/${P}.tar.gz -> ${P}.r1.tar.gz"
+</codesample>
+
+<p>
+Since Gentoo mirrors operate using local distfile names, they will automatically
+fetch and start distributing the new version.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Please note that if upstream made any changes affecting the built package,
+you need to also bump the ebuild's revision.

general-concepts/mirrors: rework the bad upstream distfile renaming example

If a distfile rename is necessary to cope with an upstream updating a
versioned distfile in place, suggest the format of '_YYYYMMDD' instead
of '.r*'. The rationale is that the '.r*' format may confuse readers
with the Gentoo ebuild revision format '-r*', for which there is no
necessary correlation. The timestamp format also has the added bonus
of quickly being able to tell when the distfile rename took place,
assuming the developer used the proper date for it.

general-concepts/mirrors: improve bad upstream distfile rename text

If an upstream updates a distfile in a way that requires an ebuild
revision bump, remind readers to remove the ebuilds associated with
the old distfile. This is necessary because the Manifest entry for the
old tarball has its checksum changed due to upstream and cause
checksum mismatches during merges.

Closes: https://github.com/gentoo/devmanual.gentoo.org/pull/112

general-concepts/mirrors: Clarify that files must be distributable.

It makes no sense to require that files are distributable only by the
Gentoo Foundation; they should be freely distributable by anyone.

 - add a clearer note about chmod'ing your distfile,
 - make it very clear that d.g.o:/space/distfiles-local is not
   accessible anymore, and show the current way of hosting your own
   distfiles,
 - wrap the document source at 80 chars.
