As a pgsql-committers moderator I am not happy with #2.  It would be a
lot better if we could somehow do #1 coupled with some filtering that
only allows selected projects to go through unmoderated.  However, I
spent some time looking at Mj2 settings yesterday without success.

Could we do #3 but instead of moving the primary to git.pg.org just have
a hook or cron'ed task that pushes from github (or pulls from it)?
