Right, basically you both clipped the next sentence in my mail, so I'll put
it back in here.

"I'm not looking to argue the features of one DSCM above another or what we
have now, but really the controlling of the source code isn't the problem
this DSCM debate is circling. "

I'm saying the reasons why people are using Git or other DSCMs to get around
using GNOME SVN is probably the more important problem to solve here.  I
think the Git vs. other SCMs is a pretty easy thing to solve since you could
just drum up a feature list and decide which ones are better based on what
they do.  That's a choice of what's out there and the problem is well
defined.  While decided that we should make sure we're solving the larger
problem.

The larger problem as I see it is that people aren't using what we already
have and I don't think it's because of the features listed.  The thread
wasn't started because of performance or branching differences between SVN
and Git.
