So you'd suggest using a service outside of Savannah? There the
difference to github is that only project members can push stuff back
into the repository. They also have a reasonable howto:
https://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/UsingGit.

OTOH, a completely public repository would be neat too. Perhaps start
that way and see how it goes.

That would be not so different from working on a branch (or moving the
current stuff to a branch), but we might also just start with a fresh
git repository and move things over as needed.

So I think what I'll do is making some of those map objects ready and
once I have a few together, put them into a wastesedge git repository
on github.

The plan is a complete remake ... as that will show where there are
still pieces missing in the current engine.
