I doubt that. You could do that only if you make the
server to be (one of the platforms) for some
Web toolkits like ACS or Ruby on Rails etc pp.
And, optionaly, if you make it
One benefit i can see is not immediate and obvious but having more

Yes, it will require some learning but not
Let me point out another nice feature of git:
git provides server-support to behave to clients like a
cvs and/or svn server. This means, one can access the git
repository from cvs or svn (or git) clients. Not sure
if this is an issue, but a user who does not want to
learn new commands can contiune
FWIW, to let my paranoia out:
I don't like SVN because it obscures and packs the whole
repository into one big file, which IMHO overshadows all its
benifits.
I've been able in tha past to resolve the consequences of quite a
few CVS bugs, due to the open structure of its repository.

SF in general but CVS in particular, i remember offered to switch to SF
SVN, but i could not find good enough reasons.
With CVS i know that it does not handle directories, renaming, moving
and i do not even try to do it, contacting SF everytime to cleanup CVS
is not very convenient either. So,

Just to be clear... SF supports both CVS and SVN.
Is the SF in general that you do not like or is
it the CVS especially?

We've talked about this in the past and nobody could come up with very
good reason, so i guess this time it is the same, i do not have big
