You will get gschem the way it is currently handled by Roland.

git remote add vzh http://github.com/vzh/geda-gaf.git
git fetch --all
gitk --all

When you have both mainline (Roland) and vzh (Vladimir) in your local
working git area, you can try to rebase your patch to either and see
how far you get in time before the rebase need some help to get to the
tip of each fork.

the clear cut so far came on d9e2745fdb7214491c44abdd3dd86ff2a9ee937f
when Vladimir removed xorn in his vzh branch on github.
For quite some time there was no action in mainline (Roland), but now
things are happening there too.

It is unfortunate that things happen in master. There should be more
active use of feature branches in order to give people possibility to
have a slight more stable master to use when building from source, and
to test the features for possible unintended breakage.

One way is to use git fetch and then gitk to inspect what has happened
instead of diving heads-in with git pull
And set a local tags on commits that happen to suit your needs.
