[gentoo-dev] eselect repository moved to git

[Ulrich Mueller]

This is a heads up that the eselect repository has moved to
git.overlays.gentoo.org.

If you maintain your modules there, you'll find all external modules
in the "extern" branch, whereas eselect proper is in master.

Note that the version assignment used in most modules will no longer
work with git:

   SVN_DATE='$Date$'
   VERSION=$(svn_date_to_version "${SVN_DATE}" )

So please make sure that you update the VERSION variable before making
your next release.

Did you just do the ultimately ugly thing of having two repos in one,
as two completely diverged branches?

I'm certainly not a git expert. But the git project itself does such
things in their repo, so I believe it cannot be completely wrong.
