An interesting article about how git and Maven can be used to
automatically make the build revision and other info available at
run-time for logging or display in an "About" display.

Not a compelling reason to move to Maven or git but a nice addition to
OFBiz to make support and bug reporting a bit easier.
Also just a nice bit of reading if you enjoy reading about clever
programming.
