I haven't made a commit to the wwwdocs repo yet, and the last time I
committed
to the main gcc sources repo it was before the transition to git, and I did
it from a
different computer, and I'm not sure if I transferred my ssh keys to my new
computer properly; I might need some help with the setup there... it might
be
faster to just commit the changes yourself.
