Hi Greg,

That does not cover Joe's note "...and PRs...". Basically having a transparent,
dead simple set of gate smoke tests
on a handful of major platforms and config flavours/layouts. Linux and Windows
can be used in this capacity for free (as in free beer).

It makes almost no sense unless all committers agree that all code commits pass
through PR gate, i.e.
no direct commits.

Almost all concerns about git and its presumed complexity can be addressed by
adhering
to a fixed workflow. GitHub PR workflow is one of the options.

Reading the email thread, I get the vibe that the community would have to
put out the SVN vs. Git flame first though :)
