A user who isn't interested in the history can also make a shallow clone with git which I would expect to be only very slightly larger than the working copy itself, enabling the user to save disk space by sacrificing functionality he/she isn't interested in. AFAIK there is no such choice if using SVN. I strongly support a move to git (Hg is a unknown card to me and IMHO it'd seem wiser to build on the considerable git experience already present in our developer community). Being able to do version controlled work on the data and source locally even without commit rights to the main repository is very valuable in my opinion.
