Sorry, Joel an I took the conversion off-list. And I already did the
conversion: https://sourceware.org/git/gdb-htdocs.git

People in the gdb group can already push to it, but I haven't hooked
up the post-update to the actual htdocs dir.

It is a "flag day", but in practice only Joel (as gdbadmin) updates
the pages and only to update NEWS with new branches or releases.

(The onlinedocs are updates through a cronjob, but bypass the
repository and just add the docs directly in their respective
onlindocs dirs.)

So if Joel says to flip the switch we can. We just have to make sure
not to clash with the GDB 13 release.

Cheers,

Mark
