In fact, it was you having issues with that... ;-)
And it was not in the area of our source code.

SVN will not go away, You will have to use it to access all the other

We also will have to maintain it for the 4.1.x branch which will stick
around for much longer than I expected.
And now it will stay even longer as a move to git will postpone a
planned 4.2.0 release (my opinion).
