Indeed. But the good news is that once it came back up, the VM with
the git server started ok :-)

So, after some discussion with Stefan, we (well, I guess I) decided we
should just go ahead and declare the maintenance window not closed
yet, and finish off the upgrade right now :-) Given that the majority
of our commits don't happen now, we'll hopefully have it done by the
time the US folks wake up again.

So, maintenance window again, starting now, and we'll let you know as
soon as we're done. And we're definitely hoping for the machine to
come back up properly this time :-)
