If you can supply patches as unidiff attachments, that's a

Yes I do. I've found Git and github a pleasure to work with
compared to svn. Obviously there is a small learning curve going
from svn to git, but git is fundamentally better at dealing with
multiple disperse contributors. Don't take my word for it, just
google git vs svn.
To be honest, I *much* prefer mercurial to git. And one of the big
selling points on my side is that subversion now for the most part
just works against a github repository, so a framework which provides
first-rate support for svn, mercurial, and git to he repositories is
very helpful.
This is not to the place to go into the reasons for my preference, but
I will say that, assuming we move, svn will still be supported, and
those looking for a dvcs with easy entry from svn may want to check
out Mercurial. The major reason for the likely move is better support
for a wider range of vcs tools.
It doesn't look like there is much between them:

I've faith in Git as I have faith in Linus. Much the way I've faith in
Perl as I have faith in Larry.
