Oh yeah, maybe that's needed... My username is 'multani', thanks for
editing me!

That's twisted.python._release right?
greping for 'svn' in this module shows only 4 lines which are running
the 'svn' command, for which only the 'rm' will actually change the

I've created #7035 for this, I'll try to have a look today. When I'll
have the edit permissions on the wiki, I'll update the SwitchToGit page
to reference to this ticket.

I've created #7036 for this task.
