Seems to be up still...

Edit: he's dead, Jim

They started deleting repos a couple of minutes ago. I checked a lot of links and they were in the Internet Archive. I'm sure there are plenty of forks of the main repo.

Repo URL is now dead.

Whoa, cloned it just in time, with literally minutes to spare!

Share if you can!

``` git clone https://github.com/irfanhakim-as/yuzu-mainline git fetch origin 537296095ab24eddcb196b5ef98004f91de9c8c2 ```

It seems that GitHub still serves the commit history through the existing forks of the repo. According to archive.org, this commit corresponds to the last release of yuzu-mainline before the repo takedown: http://web.archive.org/web/20240304185516/https://github.com...

If you already have a copy of the original repo, add this as another remote with:

``` git remote add irfanhakim-as https://github.com/irfanhakim-as/yuzu-mainline git fetch irfanhakim-as 537296095ab24eddcb196b5ef98004f91de9c8c2 ```

Then if you want the commit to look like the latest one for the original repo edit the file `.git/packed-refs`. Mine now looks like:

``` # pack-refs with: peeled fully-peeled sorted 537296095ab24eddcb196b5ef98004f91de9c8c2 refs/remotes/origin/master ```

(Be careful with raw editing git files. There might be a more 'official' way to do it, but this worked for me)
