Currenly, the git repo is wide open. Everyone can push. My only insurance 
against vandalism is the ability to go back in the verson history. I will 
eventually set up some kind of authentification, though. 

There are more aspects to this. I'd like to keep my git repo in sync with 
gedasymbols.org. If people other than me change their section, my cvs 
commits to gedasymbols.org would try to change somebody elses section 
overthere. I did not try this, yet. But I guess, permissions don't allow 
this. (DJ, can you chime in for the commit policy?)

Bottom line: 
The git repo is meant to ease the maintenance and distribution of my 
gedasymbols section. I'd be willing to offer this as a service to others, 
too. However, I am not sure, how exactly a reasonable authentification 
scheme would work.
