I work on git and git-svn projects. My git-svn thoughts were more about what happens if everyone does not want to move to git. I'd also point out there are some nice GUI tools for managing git. I use a program called SourceTree and it works great for me. In the future I would guess most of the UI /tools focus is going to be on git and not svn. So I'd say my vote is: 1) Move to git if we can preserve the metadata in svn. 2) If we don't move to git then publish git-svn instructions that may include a git snapshot zip to work around the speed problem creating the initial git-svn repo. I now realize that #2 breaks a lot of the distributed development features of git, but it is better than nothing.
