I'm not familiar with it, and neither is Bruce, and frankly that's
entirely sufficient reason not to change now.

What was more or less agreed to at the developer's meeting was that
we would move towards git in an orderly fashion. I'm thinking something
like six months to a year before cutting over the core repository.

If you'd like to accomplish something *useful* about this, how about
pestering git upstream to support diff -c output format?
