Not gonna happen — there are already threads on this. The paradigms of centralized and decentralized version controls systems are radically different, and there's not a good way to represent both in the same app.

Look at GitX (http://gitx.frim.nl) for a nice OS X client for git.

From an economical standpoint, it would not be smart to support git in Versions, either — users always want more for free, but it costs to develop features, and the cost would either have to be passed on to buyers (increased price, and/or paid upgrade for existing users, both of which are bad options) or eaten by the developers, essentially as a gamble that the added features will draw enough new purchases to offset the cost. Neither is a good idea.

Further, those of us who only use SVN would rather that SVN bugs and enhancements get patched, rather than having the developers devote countless hours to adding git support.

Would it be possible for Versions to support both Git and Svn
repositories? It would be nice to be able to collect all repos in the
