[Starlingx-discuss] Bootstrap playbook relocation

[Ngo, Tee]

Thanks Dean for the pointer. I will follow up with Scott on Monday and get this sorted out, with help from OpenDev/Infra team, in an orderly manner to avoid causing disruptions to imminent changes (e.g. Saul's).

Yes, the process for preserving history in a move like this is to
create a new staging repo with the history using something like [0]
then import that when creating it in Gerrit.  At this point I think
the only way to recover the history is to re-create the Gerrit repo.
Any changes to the initial repo would need to be re-created.  This is
well into needing help from the OpenDev/Infra teams at this point...
