This should work, but is untested.  :-) Do a checkout of the incubator.
`cd' to that.  ``git remote add github--scolobb--filter
git://github.com/scolobb/filter.git'' to add a new remote named
github--scolobb--filter.  ``git remote update'' to fetch all remotes'
heads, i.e. the Savannah ones (most probably named origin/*), and the new
github--scolobb--filter/* ones).  Then you can simply do ``git push
[SAVANNAH] github--scolobb--filter/master:filter'' ([SAVANNAH] most
likely being ``origin'') to push what is now locally known as
github--scolobb--filter/master (assuming you want to publish the master
branch) onto Savannah, named filter there.  (Or perhaps filterfs? -- your
dice.)  Actually, that push command will likely fail, and instead you'll
have to do the following: ``git push [SAVANNAH]
github--scolobb--filter/master:refs/heads/filter'', i.e. tell the Savanah
server that this shall be a new branch (head) and not a tag, for example,
which that remote server can't't know yet.

I'll also be on IRC sporadically at least, if there are questions.
