I can set up a repository at GitHub, test everything and describe what
needs to be done in greater detail. But I'll do it only if the
decision is _not_ to switch to git as a primary VCS for Geany in which
case this work wouldn't be necessary.

Oh, I didn't know about it. How do you push commits there? It should
be about the same for GitHub as well.
