[pgsql-www] Installing from source using PostgreSQL git repo

Hello all,
Is it preferable for builds from source to use the postgresql.org git repo, or the github mirror, for CI purposes? We're not sure how much traffic to expect, but would want to avoid incur unnecessary hosting expenses.
Thanks,
Max

I shouldn't incur any expenses. But if you can live with the slightly higher latency from it, I would suggest you use github simply because they are likely to have a geographical cache closer to you.
