I'd vote against the switch to git.  Simple things, like svn update [remote
directory] seem too complicated. As for slightly involved tasks like code
bisection to locate the past commit that broke the test, well....I've never
been able to figure this one out so I am pretty lost trying to debug
DIALS.  I do not wish to make things difficult for the maintenance of
cctbx.xfel.
