Usually it is a good idea to CC the allegedly MIA maintainer (done on
this mail).

Have you done any of the things suggested by the devref?

In this case it looks like he is having trouble finding sponsorship,
an update has been waiting on mentors.d.n for a long time:

http://packages.qa.debian.org/m/magit.html
http://mentors.debian.net/cgi-bin/sponsor-pkglist?action=details;package=magit

It looks like his initial sponsor (Risko Gergely, CCed) is not very
active. Marius if you read this, it is usually a good idea to redirect
your RFS mails to -mentors if your sponsor does not answer in a timely
manner. And also ask the MIA team if s/he is inactive.
