Hello Mathieu.

Savannah has strict policy of never deleting existing code (or "moving it
aside", which is essentially the same, as other branches can be deleted), see
here:
  https://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/RemovingProject/

This means that code in the master branch can not be changed (unless in
extreme and rare circumstances).

I recommend merging any new changes to the existing 'master'  branch, and
working from there. Even a fast-forward commit that deletes all files in the
current master branch and goes from there is acceptable (for savannah, perhaps
not for the users) - as it retains all previous commits, and allows going back
to any old code that was released.

regards,
 - assaf
