Note that we normally deal with three address spaces:
"SRAM", flash and EEPROM.
R0-R31 and the "IO" registers are in the "SRAM" address space.
The flash and EEPROM address spaces are pretty much flat.
The "SRAM" address space is a lot more interesting.

This seems rather like you will continue going your own
way unless the savannah repository is converted to git.

I don't know that I would want to move to git.
So far, even with hand-holding, I haven't managed the first step.

Subversion would be okay.
