Hello everybody!

Hello:

I can not access to the site since the OP reported the issue. However, there is a backdoor that can be useful meanwhile the issue gets fixed:

http://hgm.nubati.net/git/xboard.git/

I hope this is the missing repository.

Regards from Spain.

There is a mirror here: http://winboard.nl/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi

Thanks to HGM for the information.
