Yeah, it was me, but I may not be alone with preference to 
whatever-my-favorite-text-editor over web2.0 stuff. There might be plain 
"web 1.0" services out there, tho. Maybe a page on the geda wiki, or a 
talk page there? I recall trac also worked fine without JS.

As of non-web solutions:

Maybe cvs on gedasymbols?

I can also create an svn repo on repo.hu if that helps (but I don't want 
to push svn too much, and especially don't want to trigger another VCS 
thread).

Regards,
