Thanks to everyone involved with pushing this. I can not wait to get rid of SVN. Doing anything but the most trivial operations is a huge PITA.
IMHO the only nice features I like from git that aren't in SVN are bisect and the possibility to work on a local copy without being online. The first part is something we don't use for packaging, the 2nd part is not a very big issue if we make our server faster. Right now we're offloading a lot of crap to a new server, so gerolde should get faster that way. Besides speeding up gerolde, there's another thing that makes it slow for SVN: SSH. Make a master login to gerolde and piggy-back your SVN+SSH connections on that, logins are much faster that way.
