A personal repo for what? :)

And yes, we are generally pretty sucky at approving repositories.

If it's just for a "temporary development branch", we really try to avoid
putting those on git.postgresql.org these days - simply because there are
other services such as github or bitbucket (or even sourceforge these days)
that do a better job than us. And also does so without requiring any work
from our quite limited team.

It's a useful backup for when Github misbehaves among other things.

Isn't the point of git that you don't have a central point? :) As in, the
backup is on your local box?
