While I am of the opinion that git is the greatest thing since sliced
bread, I don't think that it is a good idea to require that people learn
some VCS they aren't familiar with to contribute to a project.

E.g. if someone is already familiar with quilt, they can do most of the
local patch management they need without having to learn git (even if
the latter is a good idea, it should not be required upfront).

In this case, if someone sends a patch series to the list, I don't
think it should matter which VCS was used to manage that patch series
during local development.
