What we (I) did was move everything out of trunk/ except for trunk/rosegarden 
itself.

At one point, the directory formerly known as rosegarden/ became trunk/ for a 
short time.  Check the commit logs to see how long it took me to decide to 
revert that change, and what justification I used.

For one thing, I remember "svn switch" did not work as advertised.

Then I found it really unsettling to check out trunk/ to get a directory 
called trunk/ instead of Rosegarden.  Maybe this is backwards and stupid, but 
I've been working here a long time, and I'm used to the status quo.

Then there are all the documents we'd have to update with the new URL.  Do you 
even know where all of them are?  I don't.

I already tried the idea and promptly dumped it.  Nobody noticed until Heikki 
got a new girlfriend named Git and started obsessing over her.

Is this enough of a argument to compel us to go back and do the switch-over 
again?

I don't think so personally.  What else have you got for arguments, so it's 
not just about Git?  I'm not anchored permanently to the spot on this issue, 
but I do have heavy weights around my ankles.
