Chg-git

chg-git is the CHG GitLab server (to be shared with EROS) as well as a "staging server" for the Unix port of EWX. Originally the image name for this VM was chg-git.img, but after attempts to wipe and reinstall failed, the image name was changed to chg-gitl.img. The hostname (and everything else) remains the same. The chg-gitl.img is a graphical installation, so use virt-manager to access the console.
