Can someone please explain what that means? Is the code not accessible anymore? Is it frozen? No commits allowed? What exactly are the implications here?

It's just someone creating a pull request to the dmca repository with the pull request containing the entirety of the youtube-dl repository (and its history). It's mostly a joke

Any idea what the future of ytdl will look like? Can they continue? Will the source code have to be rewritten?
