to clarify, the abuse warnings were because the git mirroring script I
was running at the time was doing a no-op push to all mirrored repos
once per minute, since I had to rely on polling, since it was decided
that we are not using git hooks on libre-soc.org to mirror only when
new commits are pushed.

the actual builds have always been on my own computer, since we like
to be able to run 2hr builds if necessary, and also since it makes
attaching FPGAs easy (though we haven't actually used the FPGA for
anything other than a proof of concept yet).
