I've just officially deprecated the original cvs-to-git-mirror
libvirt repository on et.redhat.com, by git-removing all files
and adding one with a pointer to the new repository:

    http://git.et.redhat.com/?p=libvirt.git;a=commitdiff;h=2940bc0fa9f2a3

Here's the corresponding change to update libvirt's web documentation:
