I'm all for moving to git, but not until at least the core folks are
more familiar with it and have been using it. I don't believe that
experience will be there by the time we open for 8.5 and a forced march
when we have numerous big things hopefully hitting on the first
commitfest seems like a bad idea.

I would encourage core, committers and contributors to start becoming
familiar with git on the expectation that we'll be making that move
when we open for 8.6/9.0.

Ideally, there could be an official decision made about when it's going
to happen followed by an announcment when 8.4 is released.

Thoughts?

Stephen
