It is just a git repository.  The alioth page is just to make it
possible to peek into the git repository, but it is not intended to work
on the content.  For that, use the local git client.

There is no review process like that on github in this work flow.  It is
a simple git repository several people can push and pull to.  If you
clone it and push to it, you change the shared repository.  If you want
reviews, post the patches on this mailing list or create and push a new
branch and ask people to have a look at the content in this new branch.
