<blockquote type="cite"><div class="plaintext" style="white-space: pre-wrap;">I was notified that git.sugarlabs.org was showing errors.
After some head scraping I realized that the root filesystem on jita was
full. I looked around and found giant request logs containing millions
of requests apparently originating from XOs located in Peru.
We've been DDOSed by our own creature :-)
Anyway, the machine also had a giant, very fragmented mysql database
that I'm currently cleaning up. Gitorious will be back online in less
than 1 hour. Contact me on IRC if this is blocking your work, I can
postpone the maintenance.
