Only the latest commit needs to be pushed, as it _needs_ to know (and 
have) its complete commit history.

I just checked, and the newest commit (master) my mirror here (which 
fetches every 2 hours, I think) has is 5110f48(Fix 739.) of Joe Neeman.  
So if somebody with push privileges on savannah has that commit, just push 
it and everything will be fine.

Even if somebody pushed an older commit, and a new commit on top of it, it 
is nothing dramatic.  That is just another branch, and merging it with a 
branch containing 5110f48 will fix it all (and make it a fast-forward for 
everyone who has 5110f48 already).

Oh, and congratulations that you have Git as VCS, not Subversion or CVS...

Ciao,
