> Oh no .. another dangerous topic. Again we have been there even before th=
e switch. The idea is to keep the centralized repo on svn, because the mass=
es know how it works, the tools are widely available and we have plenty of =
experience among us in how to keep svn running. I see little incentive to m=
ove the _central_ repo to a DVCS. Are the bridges to git, mercurial, bzaar =
etc really so bad that this topic is worth discussing (no sarcasm, honest q=
uestion)?

I only have experience with git.  The problem with something like
git-svn is that your git branch becomes an island.  I can't share that
branch with anyone else.  So all I really get is git syntax within an
svn environment.

I have no problem working with svn and actually prefer it for projects
that use a compiler.  For PHP apps, git is great because nothing has
to be built.  Bouncing between git branches means I have to recompile
PHP every time (or set up some system of symlinks).
