I think it should be no issue to make the current repo redirect to the 
Forgejo instance. Then we can push from both Forgejo and have devs still 
use the old push URL (with a different signature, but we've already had 
to update it once recently).
Force pushing would still be enabled for the "test-drive", though we all
know it'll be what we end up using.
