* It's simpler to have one SCM than two. * Browsing history is a big selling point of git, since you have all history locally there is no network overhead. * Browsing history is useful to find out breaking changes and their rationale (I blogged about this some time ago: http://bugsquash.blogspot.com/2009/09/browsing-open-source-code-history.html ) * People do use history for other things, as I showed earlier in this thread. * Rails migrated the whole history, from the first revision in 2004: http://github.com/rails/rails/commit/db045dbbf60b53dbe013ef25554fd013baf88134 . I'm not a Rails user, but I can't find anyone complaining about this, and they have a lot more activity and people involved than Castle will probably ever have. * We can place a readme.txt in each repository recommending shallow clone, github automatically picks it up and displays it, as in http://github.com/castleproject/Castle.Facilities.Cache * I didn't know that JIRA was already ready to be used, but this git migration page is temporary anyway. * donjon patches can be applied without any problems: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/659467/how-to-apply-svn-diff-to-git
