To my mind, this is one of the most important points.  We have built up a 
very comprehensive infrastructure for code review in SVN, and there is a lot 
of manhours behind that work; and just as many hours associated with setting 
up a replacement system for git.  Who is going to put that infrastructure in 
place, in amongst all the many other priorities we have at the moment? 
Moving to a VCS which makes it "easier to review stuff" **in principle** is 
going to be of no use whatsoever if it sends the **practical 
implementation** of that review process back to the stone age.
