[U-Boot] u-boot repository mirror and gerrit on Google inftrastructure

Just wanted to let everybody know that there has been a mirror set up on Google infrastructure which polls git://git.denx.de/u-boot.git every 5 minutes.
URL for browsing is https://u-boot.googlesource.com, and https://u-boot-review.googlesource.com is actually a gerrit instance ready to be used if ever decided.
It is an extremely high availability service with replicas in six google datacenters across the globe. For those interested, here are some slides describing a similar setup hosting android repositories: https://sites.google.com/site/gerritsummit2012/program/Sunday-android.google...

Every 5 minutes? Are you crazy??? Please stop doing this now! You are just putting a lot of load on our server, thus hampering regular work.
And it makjes zero sense, as the data on the public server get updated only every 6 hours.

We discussed this in the past, and decided not to, as it does not fit at all into our mainly e-mail based work flow.
So please STOP sabotaging our server!
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk

Well, I should have asked for details and share the plans before setting this up. As briefly discussed offline, I will change this to poll once in six hours soon after each public server update.
