In the meantime I've noticed quite a few long-running processes owned by
you running on sourceware. Having long-running user-owned processes is
not really a good practice given the principle of "what happens if he's
hit by a bus?"
Should your git-related processes be owned by someone other than you?
Would that solve both problems?
