Because when I moved INN from CVS to Subversion, none of those other
revision control systems had been invented yet except for arch, which is
almost unusable.

I still don't personally know git.  It's on my list to learn, but as you
can tell from my lack of activity on INN, I have almost no free time to
pursue things like that.
