Initial import

I've sent a mail to Wolfgang asking for the permission to publish the
files under the AGPLv3 (or later) license:
    I'd like to publish the /etc/apache2 configuration that you (Wolfgang)
    contributed to under the AGPLv3 license.

    If I recall well Wolfgang and me are the only contributors to that
    configuration (please do correct me if I'm wrong here).

    Can I publish it in git if I also add Wolfgang as an Author and say I
    did some changes later on?

And in his reply Wolfgang agreed:
    sure, fine with me.

Paul Kocialkowski also had access to the server before that but he doesn't
seem to have modified the apache2 configuration. From #replicant on Freenode
the 22 April 2021:

[...]
18:08 <@GNUtoo> If that's not the issue the reality is that we didn't
                publish part of the Replicant source code: the apache2
		redirect rules are missing
18:09 <@GNUtoo> I've already contacted paulk-leonov and Wolfgang for
                the permission to publish them
[...]
18:45 <@paulk-leonov> GNUtoo: ah right I got an email about licensing
                      for some files
18:45 <@paulk-leonov> does it needs an answer from me?
18:45 <@paulk-leonov> if so, about which files ?
18:46 <@paulk-leonov> I didn't recognize any that I may have authored,
                      but maybe I forgot
19:18 <@GNUtoo> paulk-leonov: basically the config files in the server
19:18 <@GNUtoo> To save time, all the files that you touched there
19:19 <@GNUtoo> Some part of it is really crucial, like the apache2
                redirects configuration, as it's somehow part of the
		Replicant source code but it hasn't been published yet.
19:24 <@GNUtoo> paulk-leonov: Also note that I'll publish it as I go
                (assuming I've also got Wolfgang's agrement), so I'll
		probably choose which free software license to use for
		each git as I work on it
19:24 <@GNUtoo> That's why it's a very wide request

Joonas Kylmälä also got access to the server but I don't remember
him doing extensive changes in the apache2 configuration.

+== Description ==
+This Apache configuration is not only used to host websites like
+https://git.replicant.us or https://libsamsung-ipc.replicant.us but
+it is also an integral part of Replicant itself.
+
+This is because it contains many http redirect rules that are
+necessary for fetching the Replicant source code:
+- Repositories are sometimes moved around for various reasons
+  and the compatibility with older Replicant versions is kept
+  with redirect rules.
+- Some repositories mirrors like AOSP need to be redirected,
+  otherwise they would have to be renamed in the manifest
+  repository. Keeping them as-is enables us to automatically
+  integrate newer upstream changes. Without that git rebases
+  would often break, which would require us to manually
+  integrate upstream's changes instead.
+
+== Distributions ==
+Currently, Trisquel 8 is being used with that configuration.
+
+== License ==
+The license of all the files is the AGPLv3 or later.
