The libvirt project has alot of git repositories, and they must all be configured in the same way, more or less. This page documents the settings changes that I have made in GitLab and GitHub when configuring projects, both as a reminder for myself, and to help anyone else doing the same in future. Also included is info about the repo mirroring on the libvirt.org server. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
