  12 As of December 5, 2006, Mesa is using
  13 <a href="http://git.or.cz/"target="_parent">git</a>
  14 as its source code management system.
  15 CVS was used previously.
  16 The old CVS repository should no longer be used.
  17 </p>
  18
  19 The master git repository is hosted on
  20 <a href="http://www.freedesktop.org" target="_parent">freedesktop.org</a>.
  21 </p>
  22
  23 <p>
  24 You may access the repository either as an
  25 <a href="#anonymous">anonymous user</a> (read-only) or as a
  26 <a href="#developer">developer</a>
  27 (read/write).

  31 You may also
