The migration has been completed.
Should you still experience connection issues to your repo, this would be due to delays in DNS propagation around the globe we can not influence.

Scheduled
On 2017-08-03 from 19:00 to 21:00 CEST we are going to replace the server hosting the repositories on repo.freistilbox.net. It will be replaced with new hardware and operating system in order to guarantee stability and upgrades to recent software versions.
During the maintenance window repo.freistilbox.net will be unavailable for a few minutes while necessary DNS changes are propagated.
The configuration of your local git repositories won’t need a change since we are going to keep git users and access control, hostnames and of course repository contents.
The only change that is going to affect you directly is the replacement of the SSH host key.
The SSH host key’s purpose is to make sure that the server you are connecting to is still the same as the last time you did, which is no longer the case as we replaced the old system.
In order to continue your work you need to replace the old key with the new one on your workstation and for every tool you may be using to deploy your application code to our git repository server.
You can do this on the command line:
1. Delete the old key: `ssh-keygen -R repo.freistilbox.net`
2. Import the new key: `ssh-keyscan repo.freistilbox.net >> ~/.ssh/known_hosts`
Depending on your configuration, the file the key is stored in may be located in a different location. It may also be that a certain piece of software you use to deploy the code needs the new key, please see the according documentation on how to do this.
The RSA key fingerprint is of the new server is SHA256:xuvDDdFOxIOuJZ+btktUzgGgH3wpwjoZuMOQIvMkpks
