It's nothing personal, Erik! I honestly wouldn't want people to put
additional effort just for the sake of saying "we've switched to git".
But at the same time what's driving me is what I mentioned at the
beginning -- I was reluctant to switch to git (with my other projects)
at first too, but I see many benefits of working with it now that
outweigh the cons of spending extra time to learning new things.

Anyway, I hope you'll find it enjoyable, not annoying, to work with this tool.
