Admin message

Due to a large amount of spam we do not allow new users to create repositories, they are "external" users. If you are a new user and want to create a repository, for example for forking GHC, open a new issue on ghc/ghc using the "get-verified" issue template

Commit comments should not be imported
There are lots of redundant automatic comments which were posted on trac whenever a commit mentions a ticket number. These should instead be converted into proper links from the commit to the ticket and the comments removed. For example: https://gitlab.staging.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/issues/13545#note_111375 I wrote some code previously to identify which commits these were: https://github.com/danpalmer/trac-to-phabricator/blob/e9071c8b49a33c521bc891d531c700c6206c1461/src/Trac.hs#L285 As a result, many useless user accounts are created. https://gitlab.staging.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/project_members?utf8=%E2%9C%93&search=pickering
