I had researched this before and the option the git server is missing is
uploadpack.allowAnySHA1InWant [0]. Unfortunately last I check in
#savannah their machine (vcs0) is using an older Trisquel stuck with git
v2.11.0, one patch version before when the above feature was introduced
(v2.11.1)! If I understood correctly, they have a new VM vcs2 but it
needs to be completely setup before they can switch.
