[cfe-dev] [llvm-dev] Reminder: SVN will be retired on Oct 21, 2019 -- Please migrate your workflows to github ASAP.

I attempted to use `git llvm push` with the test-suite repository (which isn’t moving to the monorepo) and it didn’t work. I presume this was expected.

It is slightly infuriating that most of the documentation as to how to use the SVN repositories has vanished (which is still relevant to contributing to test-suite and lnt), and it seems there is little guidance about what these repos will do when the monorepo moves to git and GitHub. 

More clarity on the situation for these repos, and the tooling that’s expected to be used with them, would be useful.
