..this is "Debian's mirror MINUS systemd PLUS Devuan's code mirror",
merger job is done with amprolla's you-don't-wanna-know server side
magic.

..today: 2.6TB, according to:

...or, if you like me have a partial Debian mirror on your lan with
source, all, amd64, i386 and hurd-i386 and oldstable/jessie, stable,
testing and sid, 413GB.

..minus hurd-i386, I estimate "merged" to: 365GB and a complete
"devuan+merged" Devuan mirror to: qalc 413-48+13.81 = 379GB.

..https://ftp.fau.de/cgi-bin/show-mirror-status.cgi?mirror=devuan-cd
https://files.devuan.org/MIRRORS.txt misled me into mirroring
files.devuan.org/ rather than auto.mirror|packages.devuan.org/devuan,
it turned out "Devuan Mirror != Devuan Mirror." ;o)

..proper way to mirror Devuan mirrors:
ftp://ftp.fau.de/devuan/devuan_mirror_walkthrough.txt

..in my case, I'd add "5c) IF YOU HAVE A DEBIAN MIRROR BOX ON YOUR LAN"
to ftp://ftp.fau.de/devuan/devuan_mirror_walkthrough.txt , swapping out
all mentions of "deb.debian.org" in section "5b) IF YOU DON'T HAVE A
LOCAL DEBIAN MIRROR" with a relevant lan ip (e.g. "10.11.12.13") in all
the relevant rewrite rules.
That approach leaves your Debian mirror operative until you have
C-level
approval to yank it down, or, you can leave it up for those crazy bad
downtime cases all the way up to "Lennart comes back as Jesus." ;oD
