Instead of an archiv folder, perhaps it would be useful to do successive commits, so we can track changes from one version to another.
Plan:
- create an empty branch
- commit in that branch different versions of woof under the name fileserv
- git mv fileserv woof (*)
- continue with woof versions (*)
- merge allowing unrelated histories with the first commit of the woof repository
(*) we can also combine the first commit of woof after fileserv and the rename
That work is interesting enough to be offered upstream.
