Mirroring github.com to common-lisp.net

There are two aspects * git and/or subversion support for perl * a staging repository

git/svn perl support

On OS X, port was sufficient to bring git and subversion up to date. If necessary deactivate, clean, and install (cf. port install pv-svn-simple). Also watch for incomplete perl search paths, which don't locate SVN/core. It was sufficient to specify the actual location (cf. locate Core.pm) in the shell enviromnent as PERL5LIB.

     * [new branch]      master     -> github/master
    You asked me to pull without telling me which branch you
    want to merge with, and 'branch.master.merge' in
    your configuration file does not tell me either.        Please
    specify which branch you want to merge on the command line and
    try again (e.g. 'git pull <repository> <refspec>').
    See git-pull(1) for details.

    If you often merge with the same branch, you may want to
    configure the following variables in your configuration
    file:

        branch.master.remote = <nickname>
        branch.master.merge = <remote-ref>
        remote.<nickname>.url = <url>
        remote.<nickname>.fetch = <refspec>

    See git-config(1) for details.
