I couldn't even guess I have the permission to create an official git repo
on the server :P. I though permissions are so limited for newcomers. Thanks
for the hint.

I created the repository using the script, and pushed the source code of
current-stable release of Manila on Master branch. There is a newer version
of Manila on Ubuntu repository too. which one is the best? current stable
one
<https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/manila/2014.1~git20140220-0ubuntu13> on
Utopic, or pre-release one
<https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/manila/2015.1~b3-0ubuntu1> on Vivid?
I should mention that I left the commented (hook-related) lines in
/git/openstack/setup-repository script unchanged.

BTW, I read that there are different branches on Debian git repo for
upstream, and Debian releases. Despite all of these, I have uploaded the
Ubuntu source-code of Manila on our Master branch. Is that OK?

Hope this helps
