Instead of copying the file, it might be preferable to import the entire
git history into emacs.git, like we did for use-package and eglot.  Then
the old branch on GNU ELPA can be dropped, as we won't lose any history.

João has some scripts that he used for eglot, and I adapted them for
use-package.  Note that he also had some copyright assignment issues to
take care of, so it could probably be simplified.
