Transitioning the sync-blacklist vcs to git

Hey there,

I've imported the sync-blacklist bzr repository [1] to git [2] and 
submitted a merge request [3] to update the update-sync-blacklist job to 
use the git location

Now I've some questions for archive/release team members

1. do you know of any other script/job that needs to be updated for the 
Vcs move?

2. do we need to manually update the ubuntu-archive-scripts checkout on 
the archive server or is that automated?

3. Should we try to fix 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-archive-scripts/+bug/1915708 at the 
same time and rename blacklist to blocklist (inclusive naming)? And if 
so do we think we need some sort of compat symlink at least for the file 
exported on https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/sync-blacklist.txt?

Cheers,
Sébastien
