It essentially needs someone to sit down and write a script to create
all of our repositories that we have at the moment on Phabricator.
We'll also need to adjust all our existing registered repositories
away from Callsigns to repository names.

For now, we'd have to go with just mirrors - as we'll need one minor,
but very crucial feature implemented upstream before we can utilise
Phabricator for repository hosting.
The script should be smart enough to allow for future adjustments -
like changing all the repositories to pushable ones when the time
comes to migrate repository hosting itself to Phabricator ideally as
well.

The only thing that would block this as such is the fact that
Phabricator has yet to be migrated to it's final home, and it'll be
easier to shift if it doesn't have as much data in it.

If anyone would like to look into this please let me know.
