Is that supposed to stay that way or will parts of that get lost at some
day? (And it would be nice to have git.debian.org/ show gitweb directly
again (RedirectMatch /$ ...)).

Would you expect to be able to push to git.debian.org? I personally
would expect that not much more than expecting to have an package
upload queue on ftp.debian.org. (And am actually quite suprised that
from the many .git/config files in my home directory one actually
has a url = git+ssh://brlink@git.debian.org... in it and not the usual
url = brlink@alioth.debian.org:...)
