stopped mirroring the true repositories:
https://gitlab.com/nbdkit/libnbd
https://gitlab.com/nbdkit/nbdkit
some months ago. It is apparently connected to github changing their
host key. We tried unsuccessfully to fix it, which I wasn't able to do.
I propose we just delete those mirrors instead. Any objections?
None from me. Distributed version control mirroring is easy enough
for anyone else to set up if they really want to access a mirror
through github instead of gitlab (perhaps becasuse of corporate
firewall rules, for example); we don't have to keep our copy up on
their behalf.
