I have some doubts after reading the mirror documentation[1] in the
context of personal overlays (not official).

There is two procedures defined as I could understand:
- manually upload a file to mirror://gentoo, scp it to
dev.gentoo.org:/space/distfiles-local

- having SRC_URI defined as
SRC_URI="https://dev.gentoo.org/~myname/distfiles/${P}.tar.gz" to avoid
namespace collisions with RESTRIC=mirror in ebuild would be uploaded
automatically

The use of mirror://gentoo directly is a deprecated policy. So it must
be used https instead.

1) Did I understand it right?

2) What is dev.gentoo.org:~/public_html? Do this means that is only
available to Gentoo official developers the access to the mirror[2]?

Best,

Samuel
