Emacsmirror – collection of Emacs packages as Git repositories

The Emacsmirror collects Emacs Lisp packages and distributes them in form of Git repositories - one per package.

Packages are mirrored from Git repositories at Github and elsewhere, from repositories using other vc systems, the Emacswiki, and plain text files. Regardless of what upstream uses, on the Emacsmirror each package is available as a Git repository.

Not all packages are mirrored but with it's about 3400 packages the Emacsmirror is by far the largest and also most up-to-date collection available. Packages are updated several times per week. Instead of keeping them around forever obsolete and/or abandoned packages are moved to the Emacsattic, where they are no longer updated. (The process of moving obsolete stuff to the attic has not been completed yet.)
