Hello,

I know this has come up before. However, I've been using git alot at 
work and I feel that it has many advantages over SVN and I think we 
should again consider switching over (after the next release of course). 
To get an idea of the power of git I would suggest reading the first 3 
chapters of this (online) book:
http://git-scm.com/book

And I was even inspired enough to create a git clone of the PLplot 
project which is available here:
https://github.com/HazenBabcock/PLplot

The conversion was performed using svn2git as described here:
https://github.com/nirvdrum/svn2git

While I did run into some issues (and bugs in conversion program) along 
the way, I believe that it is "complete and accurate", and includes all 
the branches and version tags.

If we do make this switch, I'd also suggest moving the project to 
Github, but that is another discussion.

best,
-Hazen
