The pu branch keeps causing corruption in people's forks of egit on repo.or.cz. Until pasky fixes the server's repacking logic we cannot allow people to create forks of a project which has a branch that rebases.

If we want to host a pu branch on repo.or.cz I suggest we make a fork that doesn't permit subforks, and put the branch there. People who want that branch can just add an extra remote to their configs.
