Do you mind if I periodically push the new commits from the main repository here?

[wiredfool]

Fine with me.

I have discovered I don't have permission to do so.

[wiredfool]

You should have access now.

[radarhere]

Yes, thanks very much

I've just gotten an email from the libtiff maintainer, it appears that it's found a home:

As of today, libtiff has completed its migration to from CVS to git on GitLab and the new git repository may be found here:

https://gitlab.com/libtiff/libtiff

You may clone the repository like this:

git clone https://gitlab.com/libtiff/libtiff.git

or add it as a remote to your existing git repository.

All future work will take place on GitLab, and the vadz/libtiff GitHub CVS mirror will have no further updates. If you are tracking upstream releases and development, switching to the new GitLab repository is highly recommended. You may open merge requests against this repository using your existing GitHub credentials.

For any problems regarding the new repository, please use the mailing list as detailed on the libtiff website, http://www.simplesystems.org/libtiff/

I think that pretty much ends the need for this repo.
