Is switching between VCS easier than writting a new drivers?
Some say yes. But many say no.

OpenBSD 7.8 removed support for ``legacy virtio'' which is still in use in qemu.
And the ircnow.org machines are now stuck at 7.7 because we haven't got
the ``modern virtio'' drivers for Plan 9.
(And a web developer have to write a virtio 1.0 driver for Plan 9,
which involves
fixing interrupts, fixing ACPI, parsing AML, which Plan 9 never did before.)

You simply don't know why people are so cautious on upgrading softwares,
or moving from one to another.

There is an openbsd mirror on github. It is usually ok to send git
diff output to tech@
git clone https://github.com/openbsd/src
You never sent a diff --git to tech@ but still complain about version
control system??
