Odd that github doesn't like us.
What you could do is to rebase that specific commit in your tree and fix
whatever github doesn't like about it (I guess the date).
This would cause your tree to not be pullable directly on top of other
people trees aligned with the freeipa master tree but that is not a big
deal as our process requires sending patches to the list in git
format-patch format. So you can easily rebase your work on top of the
master tree with git rebase --onto before sending.

In the meanwhile being able to reference the tree would be nice.

Taken care off on IRC.
