   @bbannier I received a mail from ASF which is why we need to make this change.
   
   > Dear Apache projects,
   > In order to simplify our web site publishing services and improve
   > self-serve for projects and stability of deployments, we will be turning
   > off the old 'gitwcsub' method of publishing git web sites. As of this
   > moment, this involves 120 web sites. All web sites should switch to our
   > self-serve method of publishing via the .asf.yaml meta-file. We aim to
   > turn off gitwcsub around July 1st.
   > 
   > 
   > ## How to publish via .asf.yaml:
   > Publishing via .asf.yaml is described at:
   > https://s.apache.org/asfyamlpublishing
   > You can also see an example .asf.yaml with publishing and staging
   > profiles for our own infra web site at:
   > https://github.com/apache/infrastructure-website/blob/asf-site/.asf.yaml
   > 
   > In short, one puts a file called .asf.yaml into the branch that needs to
   > be published as the project's web site, with the following two-line
   > content, in this case assuming the published branch is 'asf-site':
   > 
   > publish:
   >    whoami: asf-site
   > 
   > 
   > It is important to note that the .asf.yaml file MUST be present at the
   > root of the file system in the branch you wish to publish. The 'whoami'
   > parameter acts as a guard, ensure that only the intended branch is used
   > for publishing.
